Instructions

- Pour the caramel sauce evenly over the apple pie filling.
- In a medium sized bowl, add the dry cake mix and cinnamon and stir to combine well, then sprinkle the cake mixture evenly over the apple pie filling and caramel sauce.
- Pour the melted butter evenly over the cake mix, then place in oven and bake for 45 - 50 minutes until it's bubbly and the top is golden brown.
- Let it cool for 15 minutes before serving with ice cream on the side and additional caramel sauce drizzled on top as desired.

Notes
- Make sure to let the cake cool for 15 minutes before serving. If you try to eat it earlier, you will burn your mouth. It’s still nice and warm and gooey after sitting for 15 minutes – the topping keeps the warmth in – waiting just prevents you from burning yourself!
- Store any leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container or just in the pan wrapped with plastic wrap for up to five days. Place any leftovers in a cold oven, preheat to 350 degrees, and allow the cake to heat up thoroughly with the oven.
- Try it topped with other toppings like chocolate drizzle, whipped cream, vanilla sauce, or even just powdered sugar.
- Freeze for up to 3 months in an airtight container that’s freezer safe. I don’t recommend the plastic wrap method in the freezer – make sure to transfer to something freezer safe and airtight.
