Good morning, I was taking a break from creating new jewelry a couple days ago so decided to bake an "Apple Dapple Cake" I have to say it was a big hit for those who stopped by before it was all gone..hehehe~~
Apple Dapple Cake
1 1/2 cups oil
2 cups sugar
3 eggs
3 cups (all purpose) flour
1 tsp soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 cup coconut (you can use the frozen if you like)
1 cup black walnuts chopped (you can use regular walnuts)
3 cups peeled apples ( I used apples I'd canned in water)
2 tsp. vanilla
1 cup raisins ( I used dried cranberries instead)
Mix oil, sugar & eggs at once. Sift together flour, soda, & salt then add to mixture. Chop together raisins, coconut, walnuts and apples, add to mixture along with the vanilla.
Bake @ 325 F for 1 1/2 hrs in tube pan. Batter will be thick!
Icing
1/2 cup brown sugar 1/4 cup milk, 1/4 cup butter then boil for 2 1/2 mins.
If you want a more sweet cake use long picks to puncture cake so you can drizzle icing down into the cake. I just brushed on the icing all over the cake...
I have to tell ya, I've baked many cakes, and I think this one is my fav. I'll have to share my " Chocolate Mayonnaise Cake" (when I find the recipe) hehehe!!
Blessings as you go thru your busy day, and remember to start with God's word for it's the only true guide for our lives here on earth!!! (((hugs)))
