Description
Who doesn't want a slice of something with the word "snack" in its name? This cake is delightfully moist with a delicate caramel flavor, and spread with a salty/sweet caramel glaze. Who knew you could make caramel sauce in the microwave! The recipe is a Yummly original created by Jessie Sheehan.

My first attempt making the Caramel Snack cake was a disaster. I added 1 cup of heavy cream to the caramel sauce and by the time I caught my mistake it was too late. I decided to forge on and adjust the cake recipe and make the cake with less cream. The next morning my cake went into the garbage can and I have caramel sauce for ice cream. I moved forward Wednesday afternoon and made the cake again, this time taking care not to confuse ingredient measurements. The resulting cake was delicious and the combination of cake flour and all purpose flour did result in a delicate , tender crumb. I will definitely make this cake again.
