CARAMEL APPLE DUMP CAKE


Caramel Apple Dump Cake - just a couple of easy ingredients and barely any work from you! This is always a huge crowd favorite with everyone asking for the recipe!

I have made this twice in one week. No, I’m not kidding. Yes, my jeans are a little tight now that you mention it — thanks for reminding me. Healthy dinners for the rest of the week, I swear.
The first time I made this Caramel Apple Dump Cake it was a recipe experiment. I have made many dump cakes in the past, but I have never added caramel to it and wasn’t sure how it would work out. Would it sink to the bottom and burn? I wasn’t sure.

Then I made it and it was absolute perfection. Jorge literally talked about it for two straight days. He said it was one of the best desserts I have made in a long time and he begged me to make it again on Sunday for a neighborhood party.
This cake was a huge hit at the party and a lot of our guests came up asking me for the recipe. I felt a little embarrassed to admit how easy it was to make! You literally just dump everything into a pan and bake it. It could not be any easier!

The cake by itself is great, but you add some vanilla ice cream and warm rich caramel sauce on top and it’s phenomenal. You can make this with any canned pie filling, however the buttery caramel, apple & warm spices all go together so perfectly. It’s the best Fall dessert I have made in years…and it’s definitely the easiest!
After many requests, I am now officially making this at Thanksgiving. That’s how good it is! So what are you waiting for, it only takes 10 minutes to put together!
