APPLE SPICE CAKE WITH BROWN SUGAR GLAZE



Apple Spice Cake with Brown Sugar Glaze image

This is a very simple and quick apple cake that I make time and time again. Great on it's own - even better with a little dollop of freshly whipped cream. Make sure you let the glaze thicken well and SLOWLY pour the glaze onto the cake, giving it time to soak in.

APPLE SPICE CAKE / BROWN SUGAR FROSTING - SO EASY



Apple Spice Cake / Brown Sugar Frosting - So Easy image

Susan Prescott gave me this wonderful idea from my Chocolate Fudge Cherry Cake comments. It smelled just wonderful baking and is so easy to make. Three ingredients is all you need. I had a spice cake mix, a can of apple pie filling, and eggs. That is it. I then made a simple brown sugar frosting... Hope you try it... Thank you...

  • 6. Frosting: In a small pan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in brown sugar and salt. Cook, stirring, until the sugar melts. Add the milk, bring to a boil, and pour into a mixing bowl. Cool for 10 minutes.
  • 7. Stir in confectioners' sugar and vanilla. Beat well; if the mixture seems too thin, add more confectioners' sugar. Use the frosting while it is still warm or it will firm up while it cools and you won't be able to spread it. I spread the frosting on the warm cake.
  • 8. You could also add nuts to the cake or frosting! Enjoy!!!!

OLD-FASHIONED APPLE CAKE WITH BROWN SUGAR FROSTING FROM KAF



Old-Fashioned Apple Cake With Brown Sugar Frosting from KAF image

This came from a King Arthur Flour site and says: "This cake is an old, old favorite of ours. It's a cake where the whole is definitely more than the sum of the parts. The moist, semi-chunky cake, spread with the frosting equivalent of brown sugar fudge, is perfect served with a cup of coffee or, better still, a glass of ice-cold milk." Not the prettiest cake I've made, but OMG - the flavor is all over it, pretty sure to make my families favorite list

2 teaspoons baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons apple pie spice or 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon each ground ginger and ground nutmeg
2 large eggs

Steps:

  • 2) To make the cake: Mix all of the ingredients except the apples and nuts in a large bowl.
  • 3) Beat until well combined; the mixture will be very stiff, and may even be crumbly.
  • 4) Add the apples and nuts, and mix until the apples release some of their juice and the stiff mixture becomes a thick batter, somewhere between cookie dough and brownie batter in consistency.
  • 5) Spread the batter in the prepared pan, smoothing it with your wet fingers.
  • 6) Bake the cake for 45 minutes, or until a cake tester or toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, or with just a few wet crumbs clinging to it.
  • 7) Remove the cake from the oven and place it on a rack to cool completely; don't remove the cake from the pan.
  • 8) To make the frosting: Melt the butter in a small pan over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar and salt and cook, stirring, until the sugar melts.
  • 9) Add the milk, bring to a boil, and pour into a mixing bowl to cool for 10 minutes.
  • 10) After 10 minutes, stir in the confectioners' sugar and vanilla. Beat well; if the mixture appears too thin, add more confectioners' sugar. Spread on the cake while frosting is still warm.
