I made this cake yesterday and served it with custard for dessert. It was tasty and looked really good but i was a little disapointed as it was a bit bland. A lovely cake, but not quite enough for a dessert for me. I might serve it next time with a brandy sauce that i used to make from a WW cookbook. Also chunks of apple through the acutal cake, or some small pieces of toffee or fudge would be really good. I would also try substituting a 1/4 of the flour for ground almonds.
I used the recipe chip with the cookbook open as a guide to check from. I doubled the recipe and just upped the mixing time a little. It was very easy to make - although peeling 7 apples was a bit time consuming - and perfectly made 2 cakes.
I love using the recipe chip. You feel confident that you will get to the end of the recipe and everything will be in there. Even if you are recipe adapting (like i always seem to!) it keeps you on track with the basic recipe.
