How To Make Caramel Apple Dump Cake
Ingredients needed
- Spice cake mix
- Caramel
- Apple pie filling
- Butter
Important tips before starting
- Caramel sauce or caramel candy? You can use either but I find the sauce is super simple to use versus opening all the wrappers from the candy. The only benefit of the candy is you’re left with pools of caramel rather than it being evenly distributed.
- For the beginners, whenever making a dump cake, please be aware that dry spots are normal. Some times you don’t get any and others there may be many. It’s hard to predict but I have found pouring melted butter gives better results than slicing cold butter onto the top to melt later in the oven.
Making the caramel apple dump cake recipe
- Preheat the oven to 350F.
- In the cake pan, add the apple filling and spread it out evenly. Drizzle the caramel across the tops of the apples. Then, sprinkle all the cake mix on top of everything.
- Lastly, pour the melted butter across the top as evenly as possible. Bake the cake for 40-45 minutes then remove from the oven and allow to cool a bit before serving.
- You can serve it warm with a scoop of ice cream, enjoy.
