Categories     dessert

Time 2h35m

Yield 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
5 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and sliced into 1/8-inch wedges
One 15.25-ounce box white cake mix
1 1/4 cups apple cider
1/3 cup sour cream
3 large eggs, whisked
Nonstick cooking spray, for the pan
2 1/2 cups packed light brown sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon sugar, plus more for dusting
2 sticks (1 cup) salted butter, frozen for 20 minutes
Sunny's Bourbon Whipped Cream, recipe follows
1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon bourbon
1 tablespoon granulated sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • For the apples: Add the lemon juice and 2 cups of water to a large bowl and stir. Add the apple wedges. Set aside.
  • For the batter: Add the cake mix to a large bowl. Whisk together the cider, sour cream and eggs in a separate bowl. Add the wet ingredients to the cake mix and stir until combined.
  • For the streusel: Add the brown sugar, flour and cinnamon sugar to a large bowl. Stir to combine. Using a box grater, shred the chilled butter into the bowl. Use a pastry cutter or fork to mix and toss the mixture until crumbly. Place back in the refrigerator if needed while preparing to bake.
  • To assemble: Spray the bottoms and sides of a 9-inch springform cake pan with cooking spray. Place a circle of parchment paper on the bottom and spray again. Pour half of the cake batter in the pan. Sprinkle the top with half of the streusel mixture, then add half of the apple slices in a circular fanning pattern. Repeat the layers and dust the top with cinnamon sugar.
  • Bake until a wooden skewer inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, 1 hour 30 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes. Cool on a rack for 30 minutes before releasing the spring form.
  • For serving: Serve the cake slices with Sunny's Bourbon Whipped Cream.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the heavy cream until light and soft. Add the bourbon and granulated sugar and continue to whisk until soft, lazy peaks form when the whisk is removed from the bowl. Refrigerate and serve cold.

EASY-AS-PIE APPLE CAKE



Easy-as-Pie Apple Cake image

The name of this cake is somewhat deceiving, since most apple cakes are easier than pie (which is actually never that easy if you're making it from scratch). In any case, it's a simple, excellent cake with a tender crumb, subtle spicing and soft pockets of fruit. Serve it plain, or with a dollop of ice cream, whipped cream or crème fraîche.

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup/125 grams unbleached all-purpose flour, more as needed
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 ounces/57 grams unsalted butter (1/2 stick), softened
1 cup/200 grams granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 large egg
2 cups diced apples (from about 2 apples)
1/2 cup/57 grams toasted pecans, chopped (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda and salt.
  • In a mixer bowl fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg. Add the egg and mix until smooth.
  • With the mixer on low, beat in dry ingredients until smooth (at this point the batter will be quite thick). Fold in the apples and nuts by hand.
  • Spread batter evenly into a greased and floured 9-inch fluted tart or quiche pan with 1-inch sides. (Alternatively you can use a 9-inch cake pan with 1-inch sides.) Bake until cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: Use firm, tart apples that hold their shape well when baked, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Braeburn.
  • Peel and core the apples thinly: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming mushy.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the apples into thin slices: This will also help them cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Make sure there is enough space between the apples so that they can cook evenly.
  • Bake the cake until the crust is golden brown and the apples are tender: This usually takes about 45 minutes.
  • Let the cake cool slightly before serving: This will help the filling set and prevent it from running out when you cut into it.

Conclusion:

Sunny's Easy Chocolate Apple Pie Cake is a delicious and simple dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its flaky crust, tender apples, and rich chocolate flavor, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give this recipe a try!
