This Hanukkah dessert recipe is a very moist and dense cake with apples and cinnamon. It’s a favorite in our household; and best of all, it is not from a box!
Ingredients
- cooking spray
- 1 ½ cups white sugar
- ½ cup butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 6 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 2 eggs
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ¼ cup white sugar
- 2 large baking apples, peeled and chopped
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray an 8-inch springform pan with cooking spray.
Step 2
Beat 1 1/2 cups of sugar with butter, vanilla extract, and cream cheese in a bowl until soft and creamy; beat in eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl.
Step 3
In a separate small bowl, stir together cinnamon with 1/4 cup of sugar. Stir 2 tablespoons of cinnamon-sugar mixture into flour mixture; reserve the rest of cinnamon-sugar mixture.
Step 4
Stir flour mixture into butter mixture to make a smooth batter, and mix in apples. Pour batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle the top of batter with reserved cinnamon-sugar mixture.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until cake pulls away slightly from the edges of the pan, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Cool cake completely on a wire rack before removing the pan and slicing cake.
