Over medium heat, melt caramel and the remaining evaporated milk on top of the stove. Stirring continuously until melted and starts to thicken. Pour caramel over the baked batter. Place in the refrigerator for around 30 minutes or until the caramel hardens. Press the remaining batter on top of the caramel (just kind of drop it and spread it the best you can) and bake for another 20-25 minutes. Let them cool before cutting.
