Method
 

Instructions
  1. Prepare and bake the Devil’s Food cake mix in a 9×13-inch pan according to the cake mix box directions (use the additional ingredients and any cooling guidance listed on the box).
  2. While the cake is still warm enough to absorb liquid (following the box guidance), poke evenly spaced holes across the top of the cake using the handle of a wooden spoon or a similar utensil.
  3. In a large measuring cup, whisk together 3/4 cup sweetened condensed milk and 3/4 cup caramel sauce until combined.
  4. Slowly pour the sweetened condensed milk–caramel mixture over the cake, aiming the liquid into the holes so it soaks in. Pour gradually to avoid overflow.
  5. Refrigerate the cake for at least 1 hour to allow the mixture to set.
  6. In a mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat 4 ounces softened cream cheese and 1/2 cup peanut butter until smooth. Beat in 1 cup powdered sugar until combined.
  7. Gently fold 1 (8-ounce) container Cool Whip into the cream cheese mixture until uniform, then stir in the 12 mini Snickers that have been chopped.
  8. Spread the frosting evenly over the chilled cake. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm the frosting.
  9. Before serving, drizzle chocolate sauce and additional caramel sauce over the top and decorate with the remaining 12 mini Snickers bars. Serve chilled.
