Caramel Apple Dump Cake

Ooey gooey caramel with sweet cinnamon apples...YES PLEASE!!! This dump cake takes very little time, ZERO effort, and is SOOOO yummy for Fall.
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 45 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 20 oz cans apple pie filling
  • 1 11 oz package caramels OR if you can find them, caramel bits will work perfectly too.
  • 1 yellow cake mix You can try other flavored cake mixes to mix it up too. Spice might be yummy and less sweet.
  • 1 cup butter
  • 2 tsp cinnamon Can substitute apple pie spice for cinnamon and nutmeg.
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9x13 cake pan with cooking spray.
  • Dump both cans of apples into greased pan. Sprinkle cinnamon and nutmeg over apples. I tend to add a bit more seasoning based on taste. I like ALLLL the cinnamon.
  • Drop caramels on top of apple cinnamon mixture. Make sure they are spready out evenly...and not DIRECTLY next to the side of the pan.
  • Sprinkle the dry cake mix over the caramels evenly.
  • Cut butter into pats and place on top of the dry cake mix. Try to cover most of the surface area of the cake.
  • Bake at 350 for around 45 minutes. When everything is brown and bubbly, it is done. Remove from oven and let cool before eating. Those warm caramels will be like molten lave...be careful.
  • Eat warm and topped with vanilla ice-cream...TRUST ME!!!
