1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350ยฐF (175ยฐC) and grease a 9ร—13 inch baking pan.
2. Make the cake batter: In a large mixing bowl, prepare the chocolate cake mix ๐Ÿซ according to the package instructions by combining the cake mix, water ๐Ÿ’ง, oil ๐Ÿซ’, and eggs ๐Ÿฅš. Beat until smooth and creamy.
3. Layer the cake: Pour half of the cake batter into the prepared baking pan. Bake for 15 minutes until partially set.
4. Prepare the turtle layer: In a small saucepan, melt the butter ๐Ÿงˆ. Stir in the caramel sauce ๐Ÿฏ, then pour this caramel mixture over the partially baked cake layer. Sprinkle the chopped pecans ๐ŸŒฐ and chocolate chips ๐Ÿซ evenly on top of the caramel layer.
5. Finish the cake: Pour the remaining cake batter over the caramel and pecan layer. Bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
6. Cool the cake: Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan.
7. Add the toppings: Once cooled, drizzle the caramel sauce ๐Ÿฏ and chocolate sauce ๐Ÿซ over the top of the cake. Garnish with whole pecans ๐ŸŒฐ for an extra touch of decadence.
8. Serve: Slice the cake and enjoy this rich, gooey, and decadent dessert!
