Chocolate Caramel & Walnut Cake

This picture was taken in a hurry as I was happily able to whip this up at the last minute, just in time to take it to a friends house for dinner! This is rich but something that you crave! This was fun to create! It is VERY important to let this cool all the way down before you take it out of the pan, otherwise it will stick to the pan. 
You can use any type of cake pan.
