The great thing about this dessert is you can change up the flavors and still achieve the gooey bars.

    Other Combinations To Try:

    How to make cake mix bars

    To make these easy holiday cake mix bars, mix together red velvet cake mix with butter and an egg. Take part of the dough and spread it out on the bottom of your baking dish. It will seem like you don’t have enough but just keep spreading.

    Top with half of the white chocolate and holiday chips. Drizzle sweetened condensed milk over the chips. Evenly distribute the rest of the dough over the chocolate chips and press it down to flatten.

    Add the rest of the chocolate chips over the top and bake. Make sure to cool before cutting and serving.

    Hope you are enjoying the holiday season! Don’t forget to bring some of these yummy bars to your next event.
