**Drunken Apples: A Sweet and Savory Treat for Any Occasion**
Drunken apples are a versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a snack, dessert, or even a main course. They are made by simmering apples in a mixture of alcohol, spices, and sugar until they are tender and flavorful. The alcohol used in the cooking process can be anything from wine to cider to brandy, and the spices can vary depending on your personal preference. Drunken apples can be served warm or cold, and they can be paired with a variety of accompaniments, such as ice cream, whipped cream, or yogurt.
This article provides two recipes for drunken apples: a classic recipe that uses red wine and a more modern recipe that uses hard cider. Both recipes are easy to follow and can be made with ingredients that are readily available at most grocery stores. The classic recipe is a great introduction to drunken apples, while the hard cider recipe is a fun and flavorful twist on the traditional dish.
No matter which recipe you choose, you're sure to enjoy these sweet and savory apples. They're a perfect way to celebrate a special occasion or to simply enjoy a delicious treat.

KUCHEN BORRACHO (CHILEAN DRUNKEN APPLE CAKE)
Recipe by Gaitri Pagrach-Chandra. 'Chile is home to a fairly large community of German settlers and their descendants. This simple drunken apple cake recipe, whose Germanic origin is reflected in its name, is out of the ordinary. When it is cut, you see three layers of cake enclosing two bands of creamy apple mixture, which can be gooey or custard-like in places, depending on how the batter and apples have been distributed. It makes a wonderful pudding, served while still warm from the oven, although it is equally delicious when it cools and sets'

Steps:
- Make the apple filling: Peel and core the apples. Cut each apple into 8 wedges and then cut each wedge lengthwise into slender slices.
- In a bowl, combine the sugar and cream. Add the apples. Set aside until needed.
- Make the batter: Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C). Butter the pan and dust with flour.
- Sift the flour with the baking powder and salt and set aside.
- Beat the butter and sugar in a large bowl, either with an electric mixer or by hand, until smooth and creamy. Add the lightly beaten eggs to the butter mixture in 4 batches, scraping down the sides of the bowl and beating well after each addition. Gently fold in the flour in 4 batches, adding the rum and water with the third batch. Stop mixing as soon as the last batch of flour is incorporated.
- Divide the batter into 3 portions. You can eyeball it, but each portion should be about 1 cup or so. Scrape 1/3 of the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the surface. Spread half the apple mixture evenly on top, leaving a 1/2-inch plain border around the edge and smoothing the slices so they're neatly level. Scrape another 1/3 of the batter on top of the apples and smooth the surface, spreading the batter all the way to the edge of the pan. Spread the remaining apple mixture evenly on top of the batter, and then top the apples with the third and final batch of batter, smoothing it all the way to the edge of the pan, which will be quite full.
- Bake the cake for 1 1/2 hours, or until a skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for 15 to 20 minutes, then release the sides of the pan and transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely. Your drunken apple cake will keep at room temperature for up to 4 days.

DRUNKEN APPLES
The use of different liquors in recipes is a sure fire way to develop a complexity of flavor attained no other way. As the alcohol cooks off, leaving the essence of the ripple, the apples absorb the flavors of the bourbon combining to make this perfect ice cream topping.
