I made this cake recently using 4 firm Spartan apples... it is simple wonderful! Ingredients:
1 3/4 cups sugar, divided |
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened |
1/2 cup butter (no subs!) |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1 teaspoon almond extract (or use 2 teaspoons vanilla) |
2 large eggs |
1 1/2 cups flour |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
2 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon (if you like cinnamon then use more) |
3 cups chopped apples |
Directions:
1. Set oven to 350 degrees.
2. Set oven rack to second-lowest position.
3. Grease a 9-inch springform pan.
4. In a bowl beat together cream cheese with 1-1/2 cups sugar, butter, almond extract and vanilla (about 3-4 minutes) until well blended.
5. Add in eggs; beat until blended.
6. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt.
7. Add to the creamed mixture on low speed until blended.
8. In a bowl combine the remaining 1/4 cup sugar and the 2-1/2 teaspoons cinnamon.
9. Take 2 tablespoons of the cinnamon/sugar mixture and mix with the chopped apples.
10. Stir the apple mixture into batter.
11. Transfer the batter to prepared pan.
12. Sprinkle with remaining cinnamon/sugar mixture on top.
13. Bake for about 1 hour, or until cake pulls away from the pan and tests done.
