Apple Cake

This is the cake that I was supposed to take to a luncheon and forgot about it until an hour before it was supposed to be there. I couldn't believe how fast it went together. It has a caramel sauce that goes over it that is fabulous, but the cake is delicious by itself or with a little whipping cream.
