Ingredients
- 2 Cans Apple Pie Filling (21 oz each)
- 1 Box Spice Cake Mix (dry, about 15.25 oz)
- 1 Cup Butter (2 sticks), sliced
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the cake evenly.
- Prepare Baking Dish: Grease a 9×13 inch baking pan thoroughly to prevent sticking and to ensure easy serving.
- Add Apple Pie Filling: Pour both cans of apple pie filling evenly into the greased baking dish, spreading it to cover the bottom uniformly.
- Sprinkle Cake Mix: Evenly sprinkle the dry spice cake mix over the apple pie filling, covering it completely without mixing.
- Add Butter: Slice the cold butter into thin pieces and distribute them evenly over the top of the cake mix layer. This helps create a crisp, buttery topping.
- Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake at 350°F for 1 hour. The cake will bubble around the edges and the top will turn golden brown.
- Cool Slightly and Serve: Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool slightly for about 10 to 15 minutes. Serve warm, optionally topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra indulgence.
