Yes, you CAN make caramel cake because I found this really easy caramel icing recipe. The cake can be yellow cake mix. However, at Thankskgiving I made my Mama's fresh apple cake with this icing and it's was pretty good, if I do have to say so myself.
14 ounce bag of Kraft Caramels
1/2 cup of heavy cream
1 cup softened butter
2 teaspoons vanilla
3 cups confectioners sugar
Unwrap all the caramels and put them in a microwave safe bowl with 1/2 cup of heavy cream. Microwave for 30 seconds then stir, repeat every 30 seconds until the caramel is smooth. Meanwhile beat the softened butter and vanilla together with a mixer. Add the caramel mix alternately with 3 cups of confectioners sugar. Spread on a cooled cake.
I made this yesterday. It is gone today..lasted less than 24 hours. It is soooooo good and so easy it's almost shameful.
