Amazing Caramel Apple Cake

My wife got this recipe from a former co-worker after she brought the apple cake to a food day. I've made a few adjustments to the recipe and she says it's even better than the original (maybe she's just being nice?). Either way, every time we've made it our guests LOVE it and almost always have more than one piece. You can serve with whipped topping or ice cream.
