HOT APPLE CAKE WITH CARAMEL PECAN SAUCE
I love anything with apples. If I were on a desert island and I had to choose 1 desert it would be apple pie. This recipe ain't apple pie and I have many favorite apple deserts, but it's a close second to apple pie. The caramel sauce is out of this world good. It's up to your taste if you want to add the pecans or not to the sauce. I like it both ways.
