Layered Caramel Apple Slice Cake !!

Instead of a more traditional apple dessert, or one with delicious bite-sized chunks sprinkled throughout, we took thinly sliced apple and sandwiched it between two sheets of perfectly spiced dough, full of brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg.

Not only that, but we put caramel sauce over the apples and over the cake to tie everything together and lock in the moisture – this stuff is too yummy!
