We had a lot of apples in this house this year, maybe because my little one likes to take one to school everyday, maybe because a nearby neighbor lets us go into her yard and pick as many as we want or maybe no matter where we go we get a box full of free apples! Who am I to complain about this! The more the merrier and free makes them taste even sweeter.
But after a while...what am going to do with all of them? way too many in just one week, here comes girlfriend with her tried and tested Apple Cake recipe, and even though I panic every time I'm baking sweets I have to mix myself, she told me there was no way I could mess this one up.
Wow was she right! It was good...too good I would say, because half of it got eaten by a pack of hungry teenagers before I could take a pic of the entire thing. You can picture right now my expression when I came to take the pics and half the cake was gone!!!!!! <-----insert the "Home Alone Plus" face here.
Of course, as tradition mandates, well at least tradition in my house, if it's called cake, it needs Ice Cream, and caramel and, well I was out of chocolate this time, but you get the idea!
Thank You for visiting the blog today! Are you having an abundance of Apples as well? What do you do with all of them, care to share? Remember my friends, everything tastes better with a Pinch of Love!
Besitos,
Lizy

That looks so good! I have everything but the apple pie spice - we were gifted with a big box of apples and I made Martha's "Mile High Apple Pie" with some of them. I think I'd like this even better!

I am so loving the picture with the ice cream and cake. I was going to make an apple cake but decided not to. Now, so wishing I had make that cake. Pinning this recipe and definitely trying it. I know what you mean about taking the picture and people eating before shot. My kids hate when I prepare something and tell them I'm fixing this to post on blog. They know it'll take a while before they eat any.
ReplyDeleteYou know it's delicious if the teens get to it before you can get to the camera. :)
ReplyDeleteThis looks outrageously good! Omg I cannot imagine how delicious it must taste. Stopping by from Foodie Friends Friday.
