This was a great recipe! I am only known to bake a outstanding "Apple Walnut Cake" and I wanted to try something new. The cake turned out well. It was moist and smooth and everyone loved it. The only problem that I had, was regarding the icing. I did everything the recipe said to do and it fell short. The recipe just mentioned to add 4 egg yolks, but it did not mention if the egg yolks should be beated prior to adding to the other ingredients for the icing. Also, I wish she would have made some mention of the consistency you should see. I was not sure at what point to stop heating the icing. It never became creamy. Other than the icing, the cake was fabulous! Thanks for sharing the recipe.

This is the best apple cake recipe! The cake was moist and not too sweet. Very tasty and easy to prepare. I followed this recipe exactly the way the author suggested and I was totally satisfied. I also think that using red apples adds to the moistness of the cake. I have tried it with Granny Smith Apples and it was pretty dry and lacked sweetness. Excellent RECIPE!
