How to Make A Slice of Heaven Cake

Step 1: Bake the Cake

Prepare and bake the chocolate cake according to the package instructions using a 9 × 13-inch pan. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes.

Step 2: Poke the Cake

Using the handle of a wooden spoon, poke holes all over the warm cake, spacing them evenly.

Step 3: Add Condensed Milk

Let the cake cool for about 30 minutes (until warm but not hot). Slowly pour the sweetened condensed milk evenly over the cake, allowing it to soak into the holes.

Step 4: Cool Completely

Allow the cake to cool completely before adding toppings. To speed things up, refrigerate for 1 hour.

Step 5: Spread Cool Whip

Once cooled, spread the Cool Whip evenly over the entire cake.

Step 6: Add Snickers

Chop the Snickers bars into small pieces and sprinkle evenly over the Cool Whip layer.

Step 7: Drizzle with Caramel

Finish by generously drizzling caramel sauce over the top.
