1

Heat oven to 350°F. Spray bottom of 15x10x1-inch pan with cooking spray.
2

In large bowl, beat cake mix, water, eggs and cinnamon with electric mixer on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Stir in applesauce until mixed well; pour into pan. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely, about 1 hour.
3

In medium bowl, stir vanilla frosting and 1/4 cup caramel topping until well mixed. Frost cooled cake; drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon caramel topping. Top with crushed apple chips. To serve, cut into 6 rows by 4 rows.

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.

Expert Tips

Apple chips are sold in bags in a variety of flavors: plain, cinnamon and caramel.
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.
