  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, melted unsalted butter, and one egg. Mix until a thick dough forms.
  3. Take about two-thirds of the dough and press it into the prepared baking pan, covering the base evenly.
  4. Sprinkle toffee bits evenly over the base, and optionally add chocolate chips.
  5. Drizzle sweetened condensed milk generously over the top.
  6. Crumble the remaining dough over the filling, allowing some of the filling to be visible.

  8. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack for 30-60 minutes before slicing into squares.
