My entire family loves this cake and asks for it especially around birthdays and holidays. The most tedious task, of course are peeling the apples. It's worth every single bite! Wait until you pour the sauce over the cake....you'll want more than one piece!! Hope you enjoy! I've been making it for over 30 years!
