I received this recipe from my sister-in-law, and I love how the cake comes together with a convenient mix, water and egg whites. Crushed candy bars make a fun addition to the moist treat. —Heather Dollins of Poplar Bluff, Missouri

This recipe is amazing! Made it over the weekend. The whole family loved it! I used sugar free caramel topping (not much difference calorie wise). It was even better the next day after sitting in the refrigerator. I will make again and again!

I would probably combine the condensed milk and caramel topping since the condensed milk is a little thicker. I would think adding the carmel topping to it would make it a bit more "pourable."

Is there a reason to only use the egg whites other than to make it healthier?

I have made this cake for many years...it is an oldie but goodie...called by a million names. I have substituted every kind of candy bar...and have used chocolate syrup instead of caramel for my chocolaholic family members and they love it. SOOO easy and very good!

Do you combine the caramel topping and condensed milk or does it matter?

This has become a go-to recipe for "Oh no, company's coming!" It's relatively easy to prepare, and it's delicious!
