Not enough apples, and they were a little overcooked. At 54 minutes the top was golden but runny on the inside. I cooked only two more minutes but cake tastes dry and overcooked. I used Bisquick original also as noted in recipe. The "caramel" wasn't caramel at all. The brown sugar never melted because it is still granular yet overcooked because it immediately hardened...and I mean HARD - like rock candy. All I got positive from this recipe is that I'll try my own variation using my method of cooked apples instead. Helpful?Yes|No Reply Share More Jennifer Jan 9, 2016 "Not bad...but wouldn't make this again" Jennifer I thought this was just ok. Toasting the pecans before putting it in the pan to bake resulted in burned pecans. The cake just tasted alright, I think it would have been better to use a boxed spice cake mix. I don't think I'd make this again. There were a lot of steps and it just was ok.
