The first thing that came to mind was how moist it was, this is chock full of apples, the cinnamon - sugar ribbon that flows through the center of the cake gives this just the right amount of sweetness, not overly sweet but just right. I had it plain , right out of the pan and I was delighted with it! You could adorn this with a drizzle of glaze if you wanted to but it doesn't need it. It's the perfect coffee cake. I put a little bit of whipped cream on the top with a sprinkle of cinnamon. I'm thinking about the Edy's Apple Pie Ice Cream in the freezer with this cake....a match made in heaven.
