I have been making this recipe for years. This is a super moist and delicious dessert with a rich caramel sauce. It originates from Marcia Adams cooking show she use to have on PBS TV station back in the 80's. This cake makes a wonderful after dinner dessert with a cup of coffee.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- 2. Peel, core, and chop apples to equal 2½ cups; set aside.
- 3. Lightly oil a 8 or 9 inch cake pan: set aside.
- 4. In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar; beat until fluffy. Add in the egg and beat until blended.
- 5. Mix in the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg, mixing until combined. Stir in the apples and nuts. ( Mixture will be thick).
- 6. Spoon the apple mixture into the lightly oiled cake pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes.
- 7. Prepare Caramel Sauce:
- 8. In a small saucepan, melt the butter, brown sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil; stirring with a whisk.
- 9. Remove from heat and whisk in the vanilla and evaporated milk.
- 10. To serve, ladle 1-2 tablespoons of the hot Caramel sauce onto serving plates. Place a wedge of cake on top of Caramel sauce. Drizzle a little more sauce over the cake. Garnish with a dollop of whipped cream. Enjoy!
- 11. Note: The sauce can be made ahead of time and then reheated in the microwave. You can also spoon out a tablespoon or 2 on a saucer, and reheat that amount up for a single serving. The cake should be served warm, or at least room temperature for the best flavor. :)
