Best Ever Apple Pudding Cake...no Kidding!

Submitted by PeytonandKaylansMama

"A co-worker makes this cake for birthdays. We all ask for it, so finally she just gave us the recipe. Don't pour the sauce on until serving! Warm the sauce a little then pour it on......SO GOOD! It's called a pudding sauce but it's more like a really light caramel sauce (Not like that super sweet stuff for ice cream though). You won't be sorry you tried this one. Makes 2 8 or 9 inch cakes, but double recipe for 9x13 pan."
