INGREDIENTS

  • Cake Base

    • 1 (13.25-ounce) package yellow cake mix
    • 💧 1 cup water
    • 🥚 3 large eggs
    • 1/3 cup canola oil
  • Pudding Filling

    • 1 (3.5 ounce) package cook-and-serve butterscotch pudding & pie filling mix
    • 🥛 1 3/4 cups whole milk
    • 🧂 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
    • 1/2 cup Irish cream liqueur
  • Whipped Cream Topping

    • 3 cups heavy whipping cream
    • 1/2 cup salted caramel topping

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan with cooking spray. Optionally, line with parchment paper.

2

Mix cake ingredients (cake mix, water, eggs, oil) until smooth, then pour into the prepared baking pan.

3

Bake the cake for 21–25 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

4

Prepare pudding by whisking pudding mix and milk on medium heat for about 4 minutes until thickened. Add kosher salt and Irish cream, whisking vigorously.

5

Poke holes in the warm cake with a wooden spoon handle at 1-inch intervals and pour the pudding evenly, filling each hole. Cool for 30 minutes at room temperature, then refrigerate for 2–12 hours.

6

Beat cream, caramel topping, and remaining Irish cream until stiff peaks form. Spread evenly over the cooled cake.

7

Drizzle remaining caramel topping over the whipped cream. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt, if desired.
