I remember the first time I made these. It was a lazy Sunday afternoon, and I was rummaging through my pantry, looking for something to satisfy my sweet tooth. Spotting a yellow cake mix, a lightbulb moment happened. An hour later, as I pulled the pan out of the oven, the aroma was irresistible. My husband, who isn’t typically the dessert type, was the first to try. His reaction? A muffled ‘Mmm’ with a mouthful of this gooey goodness. But the true victory was when my little one, usually a picky eater, asked for seconds!

What You Need To Make This Cake Mix Toffee Bars Recipe?

Yellow Cake Mix: This serves as a flavorful base, for the bars. It’s important to choose a high-quality mix to ensure a dense texture that complements the toffee and chocolate.

Egg: The egg plays a role in binding the ingredients giving the base its structure. If you’re considering replacing it for reasons make sure the substitute can provide the same binding quality.

Melted Butter: Adding butter brings moisture, richness, and a delicious buttery flavor to our bars. For a twist, you could try using browned butter, which adds a nutty aroma and deepens the flavor profile.

Chocolate Toffee Bits: These little morsels are the highlight of our dessert! They infuse the bars with a crunch and burst of sweetness. If you’re in a hurry or want something chopped up, toffee chocolate bars can be used as an alternative.

Sweetened Condensed Milk: Beyond being a binding agent this ingredient adds caramel-like undertones to the dessert. Make sure to pour it evenly for gooeyness throughout the bars. For those feeling adventurous drizzling some salted caramel on top of the condensed milk can add a layer of flavor.

    These bars are so easy to make and delicious. I made them for my bridge group and had to make carry out bags for everyone. They also freeze very well( what few I had left). I’ll definitely be making them again.
