For the Cake:
1 vanilla cake mix
1 - 3.4 ounce box instant vanilla pudding
3/4 cup apple juice
1/3 cup applesauce
4 eggs
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1 1/2 cups shredded peeled Crunch Pak apples
3 teaspoons flour
For the Frosting:
1 cup butter, softened
1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
4 cups powdered sugar
6 Tablespoons heavy whipping cream
For the Topping:
2 Tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
sliced Crunch Pak apples

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9x13 pan with nonstick spray. Mix together the cake mix, pudding mix, apple juice, applesauce, eggs, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Beat on low speed for 1 minute, and then 2 minutes on medium speed. Stir together the apples and flour, and then gently stir into the cake batter. Spread the batter in the prepared pan. Bake for 35-38 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean. Let cool. Beat the butter and vanilla until creamy. Add the salt and cinnamon and beat again. Slowly beat in the powdered sugar and heavy whipping cream until light and fluffy. Spread on the cooled cake. Mix together the sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle on top of the cake. Serve slices of cake with apple slices.
