Easy Caramel Apple Trifle
Easy Caramel Apple Trifle – Apple pie filling layered with spice cake, vanilla pudding, & caramel sauce makes for one fabulous (and fast) simple dessert!
Apples & caramel go hand in hand.
This trifle is so super easy to make – and so delicious. It consists of layers of apple pie filling plus caramel sauce, vanilla pudding, & spice cake.
Such a simple dessert with big flavors – and a pretty presentation too!
Making it is easy peasy.
Here’s what you need:
First thing you need to do is make up the spice cake mix according to package directions, bake it, & then let it cool completely. Once it’s all cooled, break it up into chunks for the trifle.
Also, prepare a large container of vanilla pudding to package directions & let it set. The rest is layering.
So, all you do is layer the cake, jarred caramel sauce, vanilla pudding, apple pie filling, & cool whip in a trifle dish – in that order. And then repeat it all over again.
And you may wanna finish off the whole thing with cool whip & caramel – just because it looks pretty.

I made this for New Years day, found the link on pinterest.
It was good!
I think next time, I will use either the caramel apple pie filling, and a butterscotch pudding to make it more applel caramel flavor. Also thought about using fresh chopped up apples and stir them into the caramel topping. I was looking for more of a caramel apple taste. But it was delish, a hit at the new years day party.
I made this trifle a while ago. It was so easy and soooo delicious. I am making it again today for our family Easter dinner
