I gathered my ingredients including the Betty Crocker® SuperMoist® White Cake Mix, flour, Caramel Bits, Butter, milk, and strong coffee.
Mix the cake mix, flour, and cut in the butter.
Then create a well in the center of the flour mix and stir in the half coffee, half milk mix. Stir just until the dough forms. I used a strong coffee like this Dark Magic
Finally mix in the caramel bits!
Flour your hands and the parchment paper. Turn the dough out onto the parchment paper and gently press the dough to flatten into a circle that is 8 inches in diameter. Use a greased knife to cut it into wedges. Then, Bake for 20-25 minutes.
Once out of the oven drizzle with caramel. Cool and serve. I may have had my 13 year old watch me make these, just in case, someone wants to surprise me on Mothers Day. My kids always take the time to make me something special. Little do they know, that I just love spending time with them. That is gift enough for me.
