    I don't understand the photo - it appears to have two different cake layers but the recipe calls for all chocolate cake. Am I missing something? - 8/30/16

    I agree it is not that healthy but if you are going to eat chocolate cake anyway this would be a better alternative. - 12/5/08

    I used a bundt pan using walnuts, which are slightyl lower in calories and fat and eliminated the powdered sugar. Instead, I reserved just enough caramel and nuts to top the cooled cake. Everyone loved it. - 2/15/08

    This was delicious. I didn't have caramel apple topping so I used Caramel ice cream topping. I cut back on the nuts and used less caramel topping. If you love chocolate like I do you'll love this. - 5/25/08

    There are so many bad things in boxed cake mix. They are not good for you, even if you do add more healthy ingredients, then the normal cake mix. I still don't think this is a good idea. - 3/16/07
