my husband LOVES the other (doctored) apple cake recipe on this site, but said that he actually loves this one more! my 2 yr old son, who doesnt like sweets, loved the icing and ate a whole piece by himself. i didnt add any nuts or raisens and used granny smith apples that my son picked at a local orchard.

Excellent apple cake! Don't be discouraged by the batter's thickness, it is actually more like a dough than a batter, but remember that apples are full of water and it balances out. The icing is awesome!

This was a great cake and everyone loved it. I made two nine-inch rounds and left one at home and took the other to work. I did not frost it but rather served it with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce. Very yummy!

My daughter asked that I make it without the frosting. The top comes out nice and crunchy. I made it with the raisins, nuts, 1/2 apples and 1/2 pears. I think it would be super served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!

This was really delicious and moist - all my friends want the recipe - it was so quick and easy (except for peeling the apples - get your husband to do that!)

This cake is a real winner. It opened to rave reviews the first time I made it. Yes, the batter is super thick, but the finished product is so moist and delicious.

Really is the BEST apple cake ever! I usually make it without the frosting, it's still good. Even tried it using wheat flour. One note: when the recipe says "batter will be thick," that is the understatement of the year. The batter will be extremely thick.
