A wonderful dessert! It was enjoyed by all. Like a few of the previous reviewers I added cinn. & a 1/4 c. sugar to the crust and I'm glad I did. The frosting made it extra special--kind of a cross between an apple pie and a danish. Glad I found this recipe at the start of the apple season.

These were good but I think the frosting is a little too sweet for my taste. Even my DH said What is in it that taste soo sugary? I would make again but maybe with less frosting and more apples.

I hate apple pie and I hate most cake BUT THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER. Its easy, everything came out perfect; the apples, the icing and the most perfect dough for the crust. I do have a kitchen aid to do all my mixing and whipping. Thank you Thank you for sharing this recipe.

This reminds me of a apple sheet cake I used to buy by the slice from 7-11 when i was a kid...i have made this many of times now and everyone always loves it....sometimes i will add rasins and walnuts or dried cranberries....but its great as is too. I double this recipe and used 12 x 18 pan & had left over dough..I like it best with granny smith apples...I all so but alittle cinn and brown sugar in the dough...I use this recipe for church or pot luck dinners,,ice cream is good on top also.,,everyone always loves it.

I LOVE THIS... I put sugar and cinnamon in the dough as sugested to do by other reviewers. I would sugest putting 1/2 of a cup of flour in the apple mix. This would be 5 if I did not have to do so much to it.

I just pulled my "apple sheet cake" out of the oven about an hour ago and already had a piece. It was delicious! The crust is not like your ordinary pie crust - it's more biscuit like (probably because there is baking powder in the crust). I think the crust might be a tad bit better if it had some sugar in it. It's plenty sweet with the apple filling & icing but the edges by themselves are not sweet enough. I made 1 1/2 recipes of the pastry because I suck at rolling out pie dough and I thought that rolling it out to the size of a jelly roll pan would be difficult for me. 1 1/2 recipes turned out to be perfect for me! I had enough dough to really get a nice looking edge to my crust that I could crimp nicely. It prevented any leaks of the filling and did not brown too much. The only small change I made in the recipe is to add one more tablespoon of flour in the filling because I was worried about it being too thin. I cut it when the pie/cake was still very warm and it did not ooze at all. Sliced very nicely. I prepared my filling before I started on my crust and so my filling had a chance to produce alot of juice at the bottom of the bowl which I left in the bowl as I scooped the apples into the crust. I've had so many pies with soggy bottom crusts that I tried hard to prevent it from happening again. I used 3 different kinds of apples and didn't weigh them but used about 7 or 8 medium apples. I sliced them very thinly because 30 minutes in the oven is not a long time

This was much better and easier than making a pie. The pastry was very easy to work with. The frosting sends it over the top! I used 1/2 Granny Smith apples and 1/2 Golden delicious for a nice mix of sweet and tart. Best served warm.

I find this easier than apple pie and it is great for a crowd. I took it to a pot luck and got LOTS of requests for the recipe. I have made this using both butter and shortening for the dough, butter makes a more tender crust. It is a job rolling it out to fit into the pan but the dough is easier to handle than regular piecrust. Definitely a hard to categorize dessert, it's not a "cake", more of a pie in a sheet pan. My husband said "It's like a cross between an apple pie and a danish... but better." I'll be making this one again. The icing's called for amounts frosts the dessert VERY generously, you could get away with half as much (if you wanted to!).

This was just wonderful. My husband made me make for his work and within 10 min. it was gone. My brother doesn`t like apples so i added blueberry`s and it was just as good. It reminded me of a toaster strudel with the icing. I am so glad I found this recipe.

Excellent. It is nice to have so many pieces from a pie. My 5 year old grandaughter(picky eater) keeps asking when I will make it again. I also cut the frosting in 1/2 & had plenty.

This is wonderful. Should be listed as pie not cake though. I was worried about rolling dough out for big pan, but it worked and I would rather make this than a pie.

Wonderful Recipe! Like an apple tart with wonderful 'crust'! I rolled the dough out between two sheets of waxed paper and it took some effort but will fit the recommended pan! I halved the "frosting" and made a thin glaze for the top. This "cake" got rave reviews from my family and our dinner guest! Definately a keeper!
