Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Grease the inner pot of your pressure cooker with vegetable oil and line the bottom with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
  4. Stir in boiling water to the wet mixture, ensuring a thin batter.
  5. Pour the batter into the greased pressure cooker pot and cook on high for 30 minutes.
  6. Carefully perform a quick release once cooking time is complete, and let the cake cool in the pot for 10 minutes.
  7. Prepare the caramel layer by heating caramel sauce and heavy cream in a saucepan until smooth.
  8. Gently remove the cake from the cooker, drizzle with half of the caramel sauce, stack layers, and drizzle remaining caramel sauce.
  9. Sprinkle toffee bits and chocolate chips on top and allow to set for 15 minutes before slicing.
