Apple Cake W/ Cream Cheese Frosting image

I got this recipe from allrecipes.com It is slightly different from the one posted by MustangMom. It doesn't have pecans and the frosting has considerably less powdered sugar, making the cream cheese flavor that much more intense. For the holidays, this cake can be dressed up by adorning it with holly berries. Randomly place clusters of three of red hot candies. Cut several "leaves" from a Granny Smith apple and place one on either side of the clusters.

Time 1h10m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup butter, melted
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons cinnamon
4 granny smith apples, peeled and sliced
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
3 tablespoons butter, softened
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Stir together first 4 ingredients in a large bowl until well blended.
  • Combine flour and next 3 ingredients. Add dry mixture to the butter mixture, stirring until blended. The mixture will be very thick.
  • Stir in apple slices. It hardly seems like enough batter to coat the apples, but bakes up beautifully.
  • Spread batter into greased 9x13 pan and bake at 350 for 45 minutes.
  • For the frosting, beat cream cheese and butter until creamy.
  • Gradually add sugar and salt, beat well.
  • Stir in vanilla and frost the cooled cake.

This cake is a great way to use up leftover apples. I always have a few apples on hand, so it's nice to have a recipe that I can use them in.

The cream cheese frosting is the perfect finishing touch to this cake. It's tangy and sweet, and it pairs perfectly with the apples.
