To make the caramel sauce, pour the milk into a pot and bring it up to the boil. Turn off the heat, and stir in the caramel chocolate bars until melted.
Allow to cool slightly so it is still warm.
Place donut on rack on top of a tray to collect sauce that drips down, and pour the caramel sauce over the donut over the rack until completely covered. The sauce collected on the tray below can be reused another time.
