Notes

You can swap the apples with other canned fruits like peaches, cherries, or mixed berries. If the canned fruit is thick and jelly-like, no need to drain it.
Always layer the apples on the bottom, then add the cake mix and butter on top. Don't mix them! Letting the cake bake just like that gives it the perfect texture.
It's easier to slice the butter if it's cold.
