Tips:

  • Use a quality vanilla extract; it will make a big difference in the flavor of the cake.
  • If you don't have a 9x13 inch baking pan, you can use two 8-inch round baking pans. Just reduce the baking time by 5-10 minutes.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake.
  • To prevent the cake from sticking to the pan, grease and flour the pan before pouring in the batter.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the toothpick comes out with batter or crumbs attached, the cake needs to bake longer.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting set properly.
  • For a neater appearance, use a piping bag or a spatula to spread the frosting on the cake.

Conclusion:

This caramel apple cake is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist and tender crumb, sweet caramel filling, and creamy vanilla frosting, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
