• In a stand mixer, whisk eggs and slowly add in sugar until the mixture becomes pale yellow.
• Add all dry ingredients and mix until fully incorporated.
• Fold in the melted butter, milk, and half of the apples.
• Pour batter into a greased springform pan, layer remaining apples on top, and bake at 350°F for 1 hour or until a toothpick comes out clean.
• While the cake bakes (or before), make the caramel (see below).
• Let the apple cake cool before removing from the pan. Drizzle Coca-Cola caramel over the top of your cake.
• Slice and serve; store in a reach-in cooler or refrigerator.

To make the caramel

• In a pot add sugar and water, then bring to a boil. Reduce mixture till you start to see amber color bubble on the top.
• Whisk in your butter, heavy cream, and salt — be careful as mixture is extremely hot.
• Once combined, add in Coca-Cola and refrigerate until it thickens slightly.
