Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (18 ounce) box chocolate cake mix
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine, cold & cut into small pieces
1 cup chocolate chips
1 cup butterscotch chips
1 cup chopped nuts
1 cup flaked coconut
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325.

  • Sprinkle chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, nuts, and coconut over the base.
  • Drizzle sweetened condensed milk over the whole pan.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until lightly browned.
  • Cool completely and cut into bars. (I like to cut them into large triangles).
  • Note: I have used other cake mix flavors for the base, such as yellow and butter, and they turned out well.
