Apple Spice cake is a quick and easy dessert perfect for any occasion. This recipe is easily made to be dairy-free by subbing out the butter for a plant-based option and the milk from another milk substitute. My sister has a dairy allergy, so this is one of the deserts that are easily made to fit her dietary restrictions. Of course, it’s still just as wonderful with dairy, I prefer the recipe with dairy. I originally found this recipe on Pinterest but have made some changes to suit my liking.
Ingredients:
- 1 box of spice cake mix
- 1 20 oz. can of apple pie filling
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup of softened butter

- 2 tbsp of milk
- 1 tsp of vanilla
Directions for cake:
- Pre-Heat oven to 350 degrees
- Mix cake mix, pie filling, and eggs until mixed completely. (There will still be chunks of apple)
- Grease a 9X13 pan, and pour the mixture into the pan

- Cool completely before frosting
Directions for frosting:
