Recipe of the Day: Impossibly easy apple cake

It won’t rise as high as a regular cake, but the taste and ease in creating Apple Dump Cake will make up for that.

3-INGREDIENT APPLE DUMP CAKE

4 cups chopped apples

1 box yellow cake mix

3/4 cup butter, melted

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spray bottom of 13-by-9-inch pan with cooking spray.

Place chopped apples in pan. Top with dry cake mix, and pour melted butter over top, making sure to cover top with butter as much as you can.

Bake 45 to 50 minutes, or until bubbly. Serve warm. Makes 8 servings.

Tips: Make sure to spread out the cake mix so there are not large mounds on top of the cake. Top with a scoop of ice cream or even caramel sauce, if desired.
