Make this every fall
Lovely recipe, but not the least bit Irish at all.
I thought my mom was the only one that had this coveted recipe??This has been one of our family’s favorite for many many years! Everyone that tries it loves it. If you have trouble with browning edges try foil just around the edges.
I made this cake for a family dinner this weekend. It turned out perfectly. I used 3 large apples, one Gala, one Fugi and one Granny Smith. The 3 apples equaled 4 cups exactly. The cake was tender and moist. Instead of putting butterscotch chips on top before baking, I melted a quarter bag of salted caramel chips and drizzled over cooled cake. It truly complimented the cake. The only thing I might change next time will be to add an extra 1/2 tsp. of cinnamon.
very nice
I love the taste of this cake. The problem is I can't get it done without burning the bottom. I have reduced the baking temp. and it still burns. Not a cheap cake to make. Unhappy.
This is absolutely the BEST cake I have ever made. I did omit the butterscotch chips and used a caramel frosting and it turned out super!!! I will definitely make this many times.
Due to some of the comments here, we have reviewed this recipe again and apologize that the original baking time was incorrect. The correct time is 55-60 minutes. The recipe has been updated.Taste of Home Test Kitchen
