3 oz Unsweetened chocolate

Preheat oven to 350~. Grease and flour a 9x13 pan. Set
aside. Sift together cake flour, baking soda and salt. Set
aside. Beat butter and sugar together in a large mixing
bowl. Blend in the eggs and beat until light and fluffy.
Stir in vanilla and melted chocolate. Alternately, add the
dry ingredients and the sour cream to the butter mixture.
Beat well after each addition.
Stir in the boiling water. (Batter will be thin.) Divide
cake batter in half. Pour one half into prepared cake pan.
Bake 10-12 minutes or until firm to touch. Remove from
oven. Meanwhile, prepare filling. Mix the butter, caramels
and sweetened condensed milk in a sauce pan and melt over
low heat, stirring often. Can be melted in the microwave.
When melted, pour the mixture over the half baked cake.
Pour the remaining cake batter over the caramel mixture and
return to the oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until firm to
the touch. (It took me 25 minutes) Cool and frost or serve
with whipped cream or a la mode.
