Ingredients

    CAKE
    1 box of super moist yellow cake mix (Betty Crocker)
    1 cup of apple sauce
    1 cup water
    4 tbsp caramel sauce (Smucker's caramel topping)

    FROSTING
    3 cups confectioner's sugar
    1/4 cup unsalted butter
    3 tbsp apple cider (Zeigler's)
    1 tsp ground cinnamon

Tips

You might need to double or triple the frosting depending on how much you need to cover the cake. I used a 9x9 pan, so I only needed to frost the top.


Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350*F

2. In a large bowl, combine cake mix, apple sauce, and water. Pour into baking pan (choose from options on cake mix box). Drizzle caramel sauce on top (marble it through if you want). Bake for length of time specified by cake mix box (depends on size pan you use). Cake is done when knife or toothpick comes out clean. Let cool.

3. Combine frosting ingredients in a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy (about 5 min). Frost cake and allow to sit at room temperature or in the refrigerator for 1 hour for frosting to set.

4. Enjoy!
