APPLE STACK CAKE



Apple Stack Cake image

My mom loved to bake this sky-high apple stack cake. Layer the apple goodness two days before serving. Later, a dusting of confectioners' sugar is the only topping you'll need. -LeVa Clement, Jackson, Missouri

APPLE STACK CAKE RECIPE



Apple Stack Cake Recipe image

Provided by Pauline Loughlin

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 cups cups of sliced (dried apples)
4 cups water
1 cup brown sugar
1 tsp ginger
1 tsp cinnamon
5 cups flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
¾ tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
2 eggs
1 cup sugar
¾ cup room temperature butter
1 cup sorghum molasses
1 cup buttermilk

Steps:

  • Start by making the filling. This is in essence a process of making applesauce using dried apples. You'll simmer your apples with brown sugar and spices in some water. Once they become soft, you can put them in a food processer to puree.
  • Next, make up the cake batter by creaming sugar and butter, then add in your buttermilk, eggs, and flour mixture (flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon).
  • This needs to chill in your fridge for a while. Once it is cold, you can spread it into cake pans. You're making layers, so they need to be spread into multiple pans. We are using six cake pans with this recipe.
  • Once your cake pans are filled out, you can take the cake out and spread it on parchment paper and bake them at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 25 minutes. When they are ready, the cake will start pulling away from the edges of the paper. Doing this gives you sturdy layers that will cook quickly.
  • You will have some dry cake coming out of the oven, but that's expected. Next, you need to put your layers together. Between each layer, spread a generous portion of your apple filling. Once the entire cake is assembled, you need to wrap it tightly and let it refrigerate for at least 24 hours. The longer the better, and if you can leave it in there for a few days, that would be perfect.
  • Once the cake is ready, you can garnish it with powdered sugar.

OLD FASHIONED APPLE BUTTER STACK CAKE



Old Fashioned Apple Butter Stack Cake image

I found my recipe for this cake to use with apple butter. It also uses sorghum, which you can replace with molasses or brown sugar, or even dark corn syrup, if you can't find sorghum. But give sorghum a try - the taste is different from any other sweetener, and worth looking for. You may want to start this cake the day before -...

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 16

CAKE
1 c white sugar
3 Tbsp butter, softened
1/2 c sorghum
2 eggs, beaten
5 c all purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 c milk (or less)
APPLE BUTTER FILLING
2 c apple butter
3/4 c brown sugar
3 Tbsp butter, cut in chunks

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease or spray with oil several 8-inch cake pans, skillets, etc.
  • 2. FOR CAKE: Mix first four ingredients. Stir flour together with baking powder, soda, salt, and nutmeg. Stir vanilla into milk. Add flour and milk to liquid ingredients, blending well. Turn out on floured surface and knead like a biscuit dough.
  • 3. Divide dough into 7 portions. Roll out on wax paper to fit greased 8-inch cake pans. You may have to bake in batches. Bake until done and very lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Layers do not need to cool before assembling.
  • 4. FILLING: Stir together apple butter and brown sugar in a medium saucepan over medium high heat. Bring just to boiling. Remove from heat and stir in the butter until it melts completely.
  • 5. Place first cake layer on cake plate that has a cover. Spread hot filling between cake layers, stacking 7 high. Smooth some filling over top of stack and let drip slightly down sides. Cover and allow to set 12 hours before serving. May sprinkle with powdered sugar just before serving if desired. Or, top of stack may be decorated with little red hot cinnamon candies.
  • 6. NOTE: Layers may be frozen with wax paper in between, and filled later.
