Caramel-Glazed Apple Spice Cake

My better half had this at his office Christmas party this week and thought it was yum-o!

Cake Ingredients:
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
1 ½ cups vegetable oil
3 eggs
2 ½ tsp vanilla extract
3 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
2 tsp cinnamon
½ tsp nutmeg
¼ tsp salt
1 ¼ cups chopped pecans or walnuts
3 large or 5 small Granny Smith apples, peeled & cut into ¼ inch pieces

Caramel Glaze Ingredients:
4 tbsp butter
¼ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup packed light brown sugar
1/8 tsp salt
½ cup heavy cream

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees
Butter and flour a 9 x 13 inch pan
In a small bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt.
In a large mixing bowl, beat both sugars and oil in a mixing bowl until very well blended.
Add eggs and beat well
Add vanilla and beat until fully incorporated into mixture
Add flour mixture gradually into egg mixture, mixing until just blended
Stir in nuts and apples. It will seem like there are more apples than cake mix, but that’s okay.
Bake for 50 – 75 minutes until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean
Let cool in pan while preparing glaze
Melt butter in saucepan over low heat. Stir in both sugars and salt.
Cook over medium-low heat for 2 minutes
