Turtle brownies recipe, where's the brownie?

My son isn't a big cake eater but he loves brownies. I want to make him Turtle Brownies for his birthday, but all the recipes I find use cake mix. Will this recipe come out like brownies because of the other ingredients or something? I had a recipe I used to make years ago but can't remember it anymore. I think it had sweetened condensed milk, caramels, and pecans tht you just poured on top of the brownies. Now I am wondering if I used cake also. Any input would be appreciated! Thank you!

Condensed milk. My goodness what a 50-year flashback that produced - memories of "connie onnie butties". It put's weight on just thinking about them!

Oops! Terribly sorry about the intrusive apostrophe. That's what comes of late-night posting.

Guess you might not be looking in the right area. These took about

40 seconds to find. Not a single cake mix recipe among the choosing.
