Apple Cake w/Caramel Sauce (D/P, TNT)
Source: Pillsbury Bakeoff
Serves: 12

Cake:
2 tablespoons oil
1 egg
1 box Nut Quick Bread and Muffin Mix
3 cups apple pie filling (you'll need 2 cans)
2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Sauce:
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup margarine
1/2 cup whipping cream, or Rich's milk
1 tsp. vanilla

Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray 9"x13" pan with Pam.

In a large bowl combine oil and egg and beat well. Add bread mix, pie filling, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir 50 to 75 strokes until well blended, then mix in walnuts. Spoon into pan and spread evenly.

Bake for 45 to 50 minutes or until cake is a deep golden brown and toothpick comes out clean. Cool 30 minutes.

While cake is baking, in a medium saucepan combine sugars, margarine, and whipping cream, mix well. Bring to a boil, stirring often. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla.

To serve, cut warm cake into squares and top each serving with warm sauce. You can also top first with vanilla ice cream, then sauce.
