Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9×13 baking dish.

Pour half of the batter into the baking dish and bake for 15 minutes.
While baking, make the caramel layer by melting caramel bits, butter, and evaporated milk in a saucepan.
After 15 minutes, pour the caramel mixture over the partially baked cake.
