Caramel Dream Cake Recipes

CARAMEL APPLE DREAM CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300°F (135°C). Grease and flour three 8-inch round cake pans, set aside.
• In a medium bowl, mix flour, apple pie spice, baking soda and salt, set aside.
• In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla, sour cream and applesauce.
• Beat in the flour mixture alternately with the milk. Fold in the shredded apples.
• Divide batter evenly into prepared pans. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let cake cool completely before frosting.
• Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Once melted, add brown sugar and heavy cream. Whisk constantly until sugar is dissolved. Add salt.
• Allow to bubble for about 2 minutes, whisking constantly. Remove from heat immediately, stir in vanilla extract and allow to cool completely.
• Transfer the brown sugar mixture into the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. With the mixer on low, add 3 cups powdered sugar, beat until well combined.
• Slowly add 1/2 cup more powdered sugar at a time until you reach the desired consistency. If your frosting gets too thick, you can add an additonal tablespoon or two of heavy cream, if needed.
• Turn the mixer speed up to medium and continue mixing until creamy and combined, scraping the sides of the bowl as necessary.
• Frost cake and decorate as desired.
