I made this cake for company and we all said it is the most delicious apple cake we have ever eaten. I am sure I will make this again.
This is not the best apple cake recipe I've ever eaten, it is the best CAKE I've ever eaten. I always said the carrot cake recipe I have was the best cake ever - I have changed my mind. I always make cupcakes from the recipe (I get about 20) and I am almost knocked down when I bring them to a function or into work.
