Devil's Food Caramel Torte image

My family calls this festive dessert "turtle cake" because of the delectable candy bits in the moist cake layers and the gooey-good filling. It's an impressive-looking cake but quite easy to make, as you'll see from the recipe.

The caramel filling was a bit too sweet for my taste, but the chocolate cake was perfect.

I substituted almond flour for the all-purpose flour and it turned out great! The torte was still moist and delicious.
