Number Of Ingredients 11

1 box Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ yellow cake mix
1 cup water
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 eggs
3 eggs, slightly beaten
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/3 cups Mrs. Richardson's™ butterscotch caramel topping (from 17-oz jar)
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 container (8 oz) Cool Whip frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 1/4 cup pretzel twists, coarsely crushed (about 1 cup)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Spray bottom only of 13x9-inch pan with cooking spray.
  • In large bowl, beat Cake Layer ingredients with electric mixer on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Pour into pan.
  • In medium bowl, beat Butterscotch Layer ingredients with whisk until well blended. Transfer to 2-cup glass measuring cup, and evenly pour over top of cake batter in pan; mixture will sink to bottom as you pour over cake batter.

BUTTERSCOTCH MAGIC CAKE RECIPE - (4.3/5)



BUTTERSCOTCH MAGIC CAKE Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by á-8623

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 eggs (separate yolks from whites) at room temperature
1 tsp vanilla extract
150 g (1 cup) brown sugar
125 g (1 stick or 1/2 cup) butter
115 g (4 oz or 3/4 cup) of all purpose flour
500 ml (2 cups) milk lukewarm
a pinch of salt (optional)
powdered sugar for dusting cake

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 F degrees. Grease a 8 inch x 8 inch baking dish. Start by heating the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until melted. Whisk continuously until it becomes golden brown and tiny dark brown flecks appear in the bottom of the pan. Remove from heat, whisk for another 30 seconds and strain through a fine sieve into a bowl. Let cool to room temperature. Separate eggs and add the egg whites to a mixer and mix until egg whites are stiff. Place egg whites in a bowl and set aside. Beat the egg yolks with the brown sugar until light golden color. Add butter and vanilla extract and continue beating for another minute or two after which you can add the flour and mix it in until fully incorporated. Slowly start adding the milk and beat until everything is well mixed together. The mixture will be very watery. Add the egg whites, a third at a time and gently fold them in using a spatula, repeat until all egg whites are folded in. Another variation to folding in the egg whites would be to add a third of the egg whites and gently whisk them in to the cake batter, then reverse the process and add a bit of the cake mixture to the egg whites and gently whisk in, repeat until all cake batter has been whisked in. Pour batter into baking dish and bake for 40 to 70 minutes or until the top is lightly golden. The baking time could vary greatly depending on the oven, so take a peek at around 40 minutes and see how it looks. Sprinkle some powdered sugar after cake has cooled.
