Caramel Apple Dump Cake is a delightful twist on a classic pie, transformed into a simple dump-and-bake cake that is quick to prepare and incredibly delicious. With layers of apple pie filling, chewy caramels, and buttery cake, this dessert is a true crowd-pleaser!

Ingredients

Apple Filling:

  • 2 20-ounce cans apple pie filling
  • ¼ teaspoon allspice
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon

Caramel Layer:

  • ½ 10.8 ounce bag Werther’s Original Chewy Caramels, cut in half

Cake Layer:

  • 1 box super moist butter yellow cake mix
  • ¾ cup salted butter (1 ½ sticks), cut into 15 squares

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and spray a 9×13 baking dish with cooking spray.
  2. Layer Apple Filling: Dump both cans of apple pie filling into the baking dish. Sprinkle allspice and cinnamon over the apples, then stir to mix and smooth with a spatula.
  3. Add Caramel Layer: Cut the caramels in half and sprinkle them over the top of the apples.
  4. Top with Cake Mix: Sprinkle the dry cake mix over the caramel layer and smooth with a spatula.
  5. Layer Butter Squares: Evenly distribute the cold butter squares over the top of the cake mix.
  6. Bake: Place the dish in the oven and bake uncovered for 45 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through. The cake is done when the edges are bubbling, and the top is golden brown.

Notes

  • This cake is best served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top for an extra indulgent treat.
  • Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
