I made this the other night because I wanted something sweet and did not feel like standing in the kitchen any longer. It had been a long day already. So I developed this as I went along using the dump cake method! Sometimes the best desserts come from being worn out. I knew this was a keeper when my dad ate 2/3rds of it by himself! We have to hide desserts around here or you will never get any!
Ingredients:
Cooking spray
2 (21 ounce each) cans of apple pie filling
1/4 teaspoon apple pie spice*
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 box spice cake mix*
3/4 cup of butter, sliced up and quartered
2 teaspoons cinnamon sugar mixture*
1/2 cup pecans, chopped+
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350F (175 to 180C or Gas mark 4).
Spray the bottom of a 13x9" baking pan with the cooking spray. Pour in both cans of the apple pie filling. Sprinkle the apple pie filling over the top of the filling. Do the same with the vanilla extract. Mix together.
Sprinkle the pie filling mixture with the dry cake mix. Making sure t o cover all of the apple pie filling. Then dot with the butter making sure to evenly place it.
Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the cake mix and then sprinkle with the nuts.
Bake for 45 minutes to an hour or until the cake is brown and the filling is bubbly along the sides.
Serves 8 to 12 depending on who is dishing up!
*Notes:
In the UK you can use the Spiced Ginger Cake Mix if you cannot find the Spice Cake Mix.
Apple pie spice recipe is on the next post along with the cinnamon sugar mixture.
You can use walnuts as a substitute.
