A cheats recipe (I'm kinda feeling guilty…) but a savior when time is of the essence and a nice twist on a classic apple tea cake.
⅓ cup softened butter
3 eggs
⅓ cup apple butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 tbsp apple butter
ground cinnamon & white sugar to garnish
flour for your cake tin
Start by heating the oven to 180°C / 350°F and greasing & flouring your cake tin.
Meanwhile, in large bowl beat cake mix, water, 1/3 cup butter and the eggs with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds. Beat on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Stir in 1/3 cup apple butter, vanilla extract & cinnamon.
Bake 40 to 50 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes then cool on a rack for about 30 minutes.
In medium bowl, mix together ⅓ cup apple butter and Fluffy White frosting until combined. Slice cake in two, frosting the bottom portion before placing the top on & frosting the top and sides.
Next mix about 3 tbsp white sugar and 2 tsp cinnamon, and shake around the edges of your cake. For added 'cheese' factor I also made a stencil of a heart with some parchment paper and sprinkle some of the cinnamon sugar over that to create the heart motif.
Feel free to also paint yourself with some apple butter and sprinkle over any leftover sugar'n'spice, because you're oh so nice!
ENJOY & HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!
Try it and let me know what you think!
