I was just about to post about it!
I made it on Monday, and took it for a dinner last night at our neighbors here (the lab meeting got canceled... smileys/smile.gif
It was inhaled in minutes, very delicious cake, and so simple to make that even "I" (the cake challenged par excellence) could make it
I used a rectangular baking dish, and put less apples than the recipe called for, because the batter seemed to not be enough to coat them all. This was a bad call from my part - whoever makes this recipe, please USE THE WHOLE AMOUNT OF APPLES, even if you think it won't work.
The rum is a very nice touch - the only thing I might change when I make it again (and I will, since I could not take pictures to blog about it) - I will add a little cinnamon in the batter.
this goes into my hall of fame of dessert recipes, outstanding cake for such a simple preparation
(I also intend to get a round cake pan from home - I am flying back for THanksgiving - and bring it here, so I can do it in the proper pan)
