Expert Tips

  • tip 1
    Apple chips are sold in bags in a variety of flavors: plain, cinnamon and caramel.
  • tip 2
    If your caramel topping is too thick to drizzle, transfer to small microwavable bowl and microwave uncovered on High 10 to 20 seconds or until thin enough to drizzle.
  • tip 3
    For best success with this recipe, be sure to use a 15x10-inch pan with at least a 1-inch rim so there is less risk of cake batter spilling over while baking.
