Flavor was a little rich for me, everyone else thought it was yummy. Mine actually fell in the middle, so I scooped it up and mushed it into small serving cups. Sprinkled powder sugar and no one new.

Didn't care for it. Chocolate and apples didn't go together very well. The family dissapproved.

My boyfriend and I made this as an experiment and it was fantastic. I added extra cocoa and a few extra chocolate chips. We put it in two loaf pans and baked it at 350F for close to an hour until a toothpick came out clean. Sorry I don't know the specific time, just keep an eye on it :)

I've made this cake for almost 20 years, it's great. I double the chocolate and the spices, grate my apples finely. It cooks well in a standard pan and any fine fudge frosting makes it absolutely decadent!

It was very good and moist. I was wondering if the spices would go well with the cocoa and apple combo, but they just gave it a deeper, richer flavour. The only change I made was to chop the apples instead of grating them, because we prefer a harder texture. Thank you, we'll make it again!

My grandmother has made this cocoa apple cake for years and years now and it's delicious! She got her recipe off the back of a bag a sugar. The only difference is that her recipe calls for 2 and 1/2 c flour and she finely dices the apple instead of grating it. It's wonderful and will always remind me of her. For some reason, nobody else in the family can make it quite as good as she can -must be that grandmotherly touch! We also freeze it and sometimes just cut a slice off straight from the freezer and eat it ... mmmmmm... this recipe is worth trying -it'll always be one of my treasures!

Any doubt this is the best cake? I won third place at the county fair with this cake on my very first try back in 1987...and first the next year.

This was Ok. I followed the recipe and thought it was a little bland. I used jonathan apples and it might have been better with granny smith. I would also add more chocolate chips.

This cake was ok. The taste was very good and it was very moist, but it didn't seem to hold together very well. I pretty much ended up with a plate of crumbs. Good tasting crumbs, but still crumbs.

This was very moist and very good. I used an egg substitute and rice milk to make the recipe vegan. It still turned out wonderful.

Great recipe, a keeper for sure. I have made it a couple of times now and it hardly lasts long enough for me to get a piece. The only thing i did differently the second time was add a tablespoon more of cocoa. Excellent!

This recipe is definitely a keeper. Instead of half a cup of water I used a quarter cup of water and a quarter cup of rum. I also eliminated the allspice and doubled the cinnamon. I will definitely make this part of my holiday baking.

This apple cake was very delicious. I used part brown sugar and omitted the chocolate chips. It was very moist and very yummy, and since I used whole wheat flour, it was much more nutritious than most cakes or sweet breads. Thank you, V Monte.

I made this cake in a 9x13 pan by baking it at 350 for 45 minutes. It was indeed tasty and moist. It had a funny, spongy texture, though. The only changes I made were to use apple cider instead of water and use half margarine/half butter instead of all butter. I did not frost it because it was sweet enough with the mini chocolate morsels I added.

Excellent recipe: moist as can be, and chocolatey. I used milk chocolate chips since I'm not a fan of semi sweet chocolate, and it came out terrific. This is a keeper.
