My New Favorite? Caramel Apple Cake with Caramel Topping

This cake was as good as gone.
For Christmas Dinner, my awesome wife decided to make the Caramel Apple Cake with Caramel Topping from the Lady & Sons: Savannah Country Cookbook. It was our first time making it, and with the oven at peak capacity, we didn't think it would be done in time for dinner.

It was completed with just minutes to spare, and it was AMAZING.

Simply put, you make an apple cake with sugar, eggs, oil and flour (no baking soda/powder) and as soon as it comes out of the oven, you smother it in a hot caramel sauce that seeps into the cake, and also creates a layer of carameley (new word) gooey-ness on top. It's consistency is like bread-pudding. But REALLY good.

 If served warm with a scoop of ice-cream, you're looking at a cake that will have EVERYONE making "Nom-Nom" sounds at the dinner table.
