Ingredients | Applesauce Bars With Cake Mix

1 (18.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix

½ cup butter, melted

½ cup packed brown sugar

2 eggs

½ cup peanuts

⅓ cup English toffee bits

½ cup chocolate chips

½ cup butterscotch chips

⅓ cup shredded coconut, or to taste (Optional)

1 (16 ounce) package prepared chocolate frosting (Optional)

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Combine cake mix, butter, brown sugar, and eggs in a bowl. Beat with an electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally, until well mixed. Stir in peanuts and toffee; spread into an ungreased 9x13-inch baking pan. Sprinkle chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, and coconut on top.

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool on a wire rack and coat with frosting. Cut into squares.

Use any cake mix and frosting you prefer.

Almonds, cashews, or pecans can be substituted for the peanuts, if desired.
