Shelley: This dessert was a huge hit with the family (in spite of the fact that it preempted the s’mores) and it seems to be fool proof. I was reluctant to bake a cake in campfire coals, but it has worked every time. I used a carrot cake mix in this picture (instead of the spice cake recommended.) A delicious dessert to warm the family on a cool evening.

Assembly Directions:
Pour the applesauce into the foil pans (doubled for strength.) Mix the cake batter according to the directions on the box. Pour cake batter over the applesauce and gently spread it out. Cover pan tightly with foil and place in hot coals (no flames). Bake for 20-25 minutes depending on how hot your fire is. Cake should be firm in the center but will be moist on the top. Sure to get rave reviews!
