Cake Mix Toffee Bars
There’s something irresistibly comforting about a dessert that’s as simple to make as it is decadent to eat. Whether you’re hosting a cozy movie night, baking up treats for the holidays, or surprising your coworkers with something sweet, Cake Mix Toffee Bars are your new go-to. With a rich base made from cake mix, layers of creamy chocolate, buttery toffee bits, and a touch of nostalgia, these bars strike the perfect balance between ease and indulgence.
The inspiration for this recipe came from a family reunion potluck where my aunt brought a tray of bars that vanished before anyone could even ask for the recipe. The secret? Cake mix and sweetened condensed milk—a magical duo that turns a few pantry staples into something downright heavenly. These bars channel that same magic with an updated twist and a foolproof method.
