Description

This moist apple spice cake using cake mix is easy to make, super delicious, and the best fall treat!


Ingredients

Units

  • Eggs: 3
  • Canned Apple Pie Filling: one 21 oz can
  • Boxed Spice Cake Mix: one 15.25 oz box
  • Cream Cheese: 8 oz, softened
  • Butter: 1 cup, softened
  • Powdered/Confectioners Sugar: 4 cups


Instructions

  1. Prepare: Prepare the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and grease a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray.
  2. Mix: Whisk the eggs in a large bowl. Add the canned apple pie filling and the spice cake mix and mix with a spoon until combined.
  3. Bake: Transfer the cake batter to the baking dish and bake on the middle rack for 28-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  4. Frost: While the cake bakes, make the frosting by combining the softened cream cheese and butter in a separate bowl and mix on high speed until light and fluffy. Add the powdered sugar and mix on low speed until smooth. Frost the cake once the cake is completely cooled, then slice into pieces and serve.

Notes

Consider roughly chopping the canned apples before adding them to the cake batter to avoid big chunks of apple in the cake slices.

You don't need an electric hand mixer for this cake!

You'll know when the cake is ready when you poke it with a toothpick and it comes out clean.

Refrain from frosting the cake until it's completely cooled, otherwise the frosting will melt off the cake.
