Cinnamon Apple cake



This Cinnamon-Apple cake was a big hit in our Sunday School class and this can be served as a dessert or a breakfast coffee cake.  The cream cheese in the batter gives the cake lots of moisture.  The cake was delicious, moist and flavorful.  The original recipe is from myrecipes.com. Enjoy!

Ingredients

Butter - 1/2 cup (softened)
Sugar - 1 3/4 cup
Cream cheese - 6 ounces (softened)
Eggs - 2
All purpose Flour - 1 1/2 cups
Baking Powder - 1 1/2 tsp
Ground cinnamon - 2 tsp + 1 tsp
Apples - 2 big (peeled and chopped)
Salt - 1/4 tsp
Vanilla - 1 tbsp

 
Method

Preheat the oven  to 350°.  Beat butter, cream cheese and 1 1/2 cup of sugar in a vessel until well blended (~5 minutes).  Add eggs one at a time and beating well after adding eggs.  Combine Flour, baking powder and salt and add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture and beat until well blended.


Combine 1/4 cup of sugar and 1 tbsp of cinnamon and set aside.  Combine 2 tbsps of cinnamon and chopped apples and stir the apples into the batter.  Add vanilla and pour the batter in a greased cake pan and sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture on the top.


Bake the cake for an hour and 15 minutes or until the cake pulls away from the sides of the pan.  Cool the cake completely.  Enjoy!
