Cake Mix Toffee Bars (Print Version)

Soft, buttery bars filled with chocolate and toffee crunch, all baked on a crumbly cake mix base and condensed milk. They taste even better than they look.

# Ingredients:

→ Main Ingredients

01 - 1 cup toffee bits
02 - 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
03 - 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
04 - 1 large egg
05 - 1/2 cup melted butter
06 - 1 box yellow cake mix

# Steps:

01 - Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prep a 9×13-inch pan by greasing it or lining it with parchment paper so the bars are easier to lift out.
02 - In a big mixing bowl, toss the yellow cake mix, melted butter, and egg together. Stir until it's crumbly but mixed.
03 - Take two-thirds of the crumbly dough and press it firmly into the baking pan, making an even layer.
04 - Drizzle the condensed milk over the crust. Carefully spread it so it covers everything.
05 - Scatter the chocolate chips and toffee bits across the condensed milk layer as evenly as possible.
06 - Break the rest of the dough into small pieces and scatter them on top.
07 - Pop it in the oven for 25–30 minutes. It should turn golden brown, with crispy edges and a soft center.
08 - Take it out of the oven and let it cool all the way in the pan. Slice into bars and dig in!

# Helpful Notes:

01 - Keep leftovers in an airtight container on the counter for up to 3 days.
02 - Want to mix it up? Toss in 1/2 cup of chopped nuts, like walnuts or pecans, for extra crunch in the topping.
03 - Prefer thicker bars? Use an 8×8-inch pan instead, but you'll need to adjust the baking time!
