Chocolate Apple Cake Recipe for KJ




 
Here's the recipe for you JK (and anyone else who wants to try it).  This time I mixed the warm apple mix in with the fats first,  and beat it so no lumps of apple, then added the flour, and it came out very fudgy.  This time we had some 95% cocoa chocolate to use up as although Keith LOVES very strong chocolate, this one was too much for him and 85% is as high as he will go now.  But I don't like waste, so I did some chocolate chips and it made the cake even tastier, and not too sweet.  The outside almost caramelised as Someone (OK, I own up) set the timer and forgot to turn it on, then went on the computer (upstairs), so this got a bit of a suntan.  It is YUMMY, and I only wish we had ice cream in to go with it.

    1. Worth making especially if you have any old apples going soft in the fruit bowl (though they don't break down as well as a good cooker.)

    1. I hope it's not too difficult to convert. I have cup measures here for American recipes but am always stymied by the "two sticks of butter". How much doe a stick of butter weigh please?
