CHOCOLATE CARAMEL NUT BARS

1 (2 layer) German chocolate cake mix with pudding
1/2 c. butter, melted
1 1/2 c. Planters walnuts, chopped
1 (6 oz.) pkg. semi-sweet chocolate chips

Melt caramels with 1/3 cup milk over low heat, stirring until smooth. Combine remaining milk, mix and butter. Mix well. Press half of cake mixture into bottom of greased 9"x13" baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 6 minutes. Sprinkle 1 cup walnuts and chocolate chips over crust; top with caramel mixture spreading to edges of pan. Top with teaspoonfuls of remaining cake mixture. Press gently into caramel mixture. Sprinkle with remaining walnuts, pressing lightly into top. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Cool slightly, refrigerate. Cut into bars to serve. Makes 2 dozen (cut them smaller because they are very rich).
