Apple Cider Dump Cake

I am loving everything that has to do with Fall! The leaves, the smells, the chill in the air. I am seriously obsessed. One of my favorite things about Fall are the warm drinks. I love nothing more than a hot cup of Apple Cider, and nothing pairs more perfectly with cider than our Apple Cider Dump Cake!

You can probably imagine with this new obsession that I have been trying to sneak it into all of my recipes. We’ve shared some delicious recipes like our Apple Cider Roast and today I am sharing one of my favorite dump cakes, with an apple cider twist!

• 40 ounces apple pie filling
• 1 Tablespoon Apple Cider Drink Mix
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon
• 2 teaspoons nutmeg
• 11 ounces Kraft Caramels
