I feel like I leveled up in the recipe world. It’s a simple concept – an apple spice cake – but you want to do it right. Luckily, you have plenty of options of how homemade (or not) you get with the cake and the frosting. Plus, you can use any relevant frosting flavor! We used cream cheese frosting mixed with cinnamon, and a boxed spice cake mix. The important part is the stovetop reduction of apples and 100% Juicy Juice on the stove. This part is not only fun, but it smells AMAZING. It takes about 15-17 minutes to cook the “sauce”, but if you go over that, it gets a little overcooked and perhaps is even more amazing. Trust me, you’re going to love this recipe.
