Blue Ribbon Recipe

Just about everyone has some type of dump cake in their recipe box. This one needs to be added too for a perfect and easy fall dessert. Adding caramel to the apple pie filling makes this gooey and so yummy. We used the spice cake option and it was the perfect complement to the caramel apple filling. This smells so good while baking we could hardly wait for it to come out of the oven. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream and caramel drizzle... pure heaven.
