Ingredients

• 1 box Betty Crocker™ SuperMoist™ white cake mix
• 1 1/4 cups water
• 1/3 cup vegetable oil
• 3 eggs
• 1 (20-ounce) can apple pie filling
• 1/2 cup caramel sauce
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 1 (8-ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
• 1/3 cup butterscotch chips

Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). Grease or lightly spray bottom only of 13 x 9-inch pan.

In large bowl, beat cake mix, water, oil and eggs with electric mixer on low speed 2 minutes. Add apple pie filling; beat 1 minute longer. Pour into pan.

Bake as directed on box for 13 x 9-inch pan. Cool in pan on cooling rack 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, in small bowl, mix 1/4 cup of the caramel sauce and the sea salt. Poke warm cake every inch with a straw or handle of wooden spoon, halfway into cake. Pour caramel-salt mixture over cake, allowing it to fill in holes.

Spread cake with whipped topping. Drizzle with remaining 1/4 cup caramel sauce; top with butterscotch chips.
