Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F. Coat bottoms of two 8-inch round cake pans with cooking spray; line with wax paper. Coat paper with spray; dust with flour. To prepare cake, combine boiling water and cocoa in a small bowl; whisk until well blended. Cool. Combine sugar, butter, and vanilla. Beat with a mixer on medium speed until well blended. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Combing flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Add flour mixture and cocoa mixture alternately to sugar mixture. Pour into pans. Bake 25 minutes, or until a wooden tooth pick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in pans on a wire rack 10 minutes. Remove from pans and cool completely. To prepare frosting, melt butter in a small saucepan; add brown sugar and 2 tablespoons milk. Cook until sugar melts. Remove from heat and cool slightly. Pour into a large bowl; beat in vanilla and confectioners' sugar until smooth. Add remaining milk, 1 teaspoon at a time, to reach spreading consistency. Spread half the frosting on top of one cake layer. To prepare topping, spoon caramel dip into a small baggie. Snip off one corner; drizzle half over frosted layer. Top with second layer, spread remaining frosting over top, and drizzle with remaining dip. Sprinkle with pecans.

Steps:

• For the apple cinnamon cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray two 8-inch round cake pans with baking spray or line with parchment.
• Mix the brown sugar and cinnamon together in a bowl. Set aside.
• Beat the butter and granulated sugar together in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until smooth and creamy. Beat in the eggs, 1 at a time, until incorporated.
• Add the vanilla extract and beat until incorporated, then remove the bowl from the mixer.
• Sift the flour and baking powder together in a bowl, then stir into the creamed butter mixture by hand. Mix the milk into the batter until smooth.
• You should have about 6 cups of batter. Pour 1 1/2 cups of the batter (or a quarter of your total batter) into one of the prepared cake pans; add a quarter of the apples and a quarter of the brown sugar mixture, lightly patting the apple mixture into the batter. Gently pour another 1 1/2 cups of the batter over the apple layer; top with another quarter of the apples and brown sugar mixture. Lightly pat the apples into the batter.
• Repeat with the remaining cake pan, batter, apples and brown sugar mixture.
• Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cakes comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes. Cool the cakes slightly, then invert them onto a rack to cool completely.
• For the cinnamon buttercream: Add the butter, confectioners' sugar, cinnamon, vanilla and 1 tablespoon heavy cream to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Turn the mixer on slow to incorporate all the ingredients. If the frosting seems too thick, add the remaining tablespoon heavy cream. Turn the mixer on high and beat until the frosting is lighter and fluffier, 1 to 2 minutes. (You want the frosting to be a spreadable consistency.)
• To assemble the cake: place the first layer of cake on a cake stand. Drizzle with up to 3 tablespoons of caramel. Spread the top of the layer with all of the frosting. Place the other cake layer on top and drizzle with up to 3 tablespoons of caramel. Serve immediately.
• The cake keeps, covered in the refrigerator, for up to 3 days.

Steps:

• Mix flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt in mug. Add cream, oil, and 3 Tbsp. water and mix until smooth. Using a spoon, make a well in the center; spoon half of the caramel sauce into well. Microwave on high 60 seconds. Carefully remove from microwave. Top with ice cream (if desired), peanuts, and remaining caramel sauce. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Grease and flour one 13x9 inch pan. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Mix together cake mix, melted butter, and 1 egg. Press into prepared pan.
• In separate bowl mix cream cheese, 2 eggs, and confectioners' sugar. Pour over first layer.
• Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 40 minutes.

Steps:

• Mix together cake mix as directed on the box adding the eggs, water, and vegetable oil. Pour half of the batter into a greased 9x13 baking dish and bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
• While it bakes, unwrap all the caramels (don't have your husband help- he will eat half of them. I am totally speaking from experience). Put the caramels, milk, and butter in a sauce pan and melt over low heat, stirring constantly until caramel is melted and smooth.
• Pour the caramel on the cake as soon as it is finished baking. Sprinkle the chocolate chips and pecans on top of the caramel. Spread the remaining half of the prepared cake mix batter on top. Bake for 20 more minutes at 350 degrees.
• If desired, serve topped with ice cream and hot fudge.
