Fake Fake Homemade Apple Cake

Let's be honest: most of the recipes in the Cooking with 4 Ingredients cookbooks aren't super good for you. But every now and then you need a quick hack. For those times, there's this Fake Fake Apple Cake -- not because it's full of fake apples, but because it's fake-homemade! You can fool people into thinking you made it from scratch. Mom did this on several occasions. Muahahaha.

FAKE FAKE "HOMEMADE" APPLE CAKE
1 box spice cake mix*
1 20-oz. can apple pie filling
2 eggs
⅓ cup chopped walnuts

Preheat oven to 350° F. In a bowl, combine all ingredients very thoroughly with a spoon, making sure all lumps from the cake mix are broken up. Pour into a greased and floured bundt pan and bake 50 minutes. Check with a toothpick for doneness (if the toothpick comes out clean, it's done).

For extra amazingness, frost with Penuche Frosting.

You can alter the pie filling (cherry, blueberry, raspberry, etc.) to change up this recipe a little. If you do, though, don't frost with penuche.

*Spice cake mix can be hard to find. If so, get a boxed yellow, white, or vanilla cake mix and stir in ½ t. allspice, ¼ t. cinnamon and ⅛ t. nutmeg. Proceed with recipe. You're welcome.
