14 oz. pkg. lite caramels
2/3 c. condensed sweetened milk, divided in half
1 German chocolate cake mix
3/4 c. melted butter
1 c. chopped nuts
1 c. semi-sweet chocolate bits (6 oz.)

Melt caramels and 1/3 cup condensed milk. Set aside. In double boiler, combine cake mix, butter, nuts and remaining 1/3 cup condensed milk; stir thoroughly until mixture is well combined and crumbly. Press 1/2 the dough into greased 13x9 inch pan. Bake at 350 degrees 6 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle chocolate bits evenly over baked dough, then spread melted caramel mixture on top...work quickly!

Crumble remaining 1/2 of dough over caramels and press lightly. Return to oven. Bake at 350 degrees for 14 to 18 minutes until top is set and pulls away from sides of pan. Cool on a wire rack, then refrigerate until firm. Cut into 24 squares.
