Make cake as directed on box for 13 x 9-inch pan. Immediately after removing from oven, poke holes all over cake using chopstick. While cake is still warm, gently spread 1 1/2 cups of the caramel sauce over cake. Cool cake completely, then refrigerate 2 hours.

Expert Tips

You can use the handle of a wooden spoon to poke larger holes, if you prefer.
This cake can be made and left to soak up the caramel sauce up to a day ahead of time. Whip the cream and top it just before serving for best results.
