Chocolate Apple Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350ºF.
• Beat first 6 ingredients in large bowl with mixer until blended. Stir in remaining ingredients.
• Pour into greased and floured 10-inch tube pan or 12-cup fluted tube pan.
• Bake 50 min. to 1 hour or until toothpick inserted near center comes out clean.
• Cool cake in pan 15 min. Loosen cake from sides of pan with knife. Invert cake onto wire rack; gently remove pan. Cool cake completely.

Steps:

• For the chocolate apple pie cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Use the butter to grease the bottom and sides of a 9-inch cake pan or springform pan. Cut out a circle of parchment paper to fit the pan and place it on the bottom.
• In a large bowl, prepare the cake batter as instructed on the box. Pour 1 cup of the batter into the cake pan and spread it out. Add the apple pie on top of the cake batter, then pour the rest of the cake batter over the top and around the sides. Spread it to make sure there are no air pockets.
• Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted in the center and around the edges comes out clean, 50 to 55 minutes. Remove to a rack to cool slightly. When cool enough to handle, turn the cake out onto the rack, peel off the parchment paper and allow to cool completely.
• For the ganache: Pour the chocolate chips into a medium bowl. In a small pot on medium heat, add the heavy cream, rum and a pinch of salt and whisk until warm. Pour over the bowl of chips and allow to sit and soak in for 2 minutes. Whisk to melt the chocolate completely.
• Place the cake on a serving platter, pour the ganache in the center and spread gently outward over the edges. Sprinkle with the pecans and serve.

• Grease well a 9x13 cake pan or an angel food cake pan.
• Stir flour, sugar, oil, eggs, baking soda, cinnamon, salt and vanilla in a large bowl.
• Stir in apples and chocolate chips.
• Pour batter, which will be very thick and lumpy, into pan.
• Bake at 375 degrees for 1 hour.
• Let cool.
• Store in an air-tight container or cover with saran wrap.
• ***Tips*** if using an angel food cake pan, be very careful when removing it from the pan, it sometimes falls apart. if using a regular cake pan, serve right from the pan. ***If cake seems to be a little dry, place slices of apples on the top of the cake until you are ready to serve.

Steps:

• Cream together until fluffy the eggs, sugar, butter or margarine, and water.
• In another bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa, baking soda, and spices.
• Add dry ingredients to creamed mixture and mix well.
• Fold in chocolate chips, apple, and vanilla extract. Stir until these ingredients are evenly distributed.
• Spoon into greased, floured 10 inch bundt or loose bottom tube pan.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter the bottom and sides of a 9-inch springform pan and dust all sides with the crushed vanilla wafers; set aside. Sift the flour and baking powder together in a small bowl and set aside.
• Using a mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whisk the eggs on high speed until pale and very thick, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a medium saucepan and cook, scraping the sides and bottom of the pan to prevent burning, until the butter browns and smells nutty, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Add 3/4 cup of the granulated sugar to the eggs. Add one-third of the flour mixture, then half of the butter, another third of the flour, the remaining butter and the rest of flour, mixing between additions. Whisk until just barely combined. Using a spatula, gently fold the batter until the ingredients are combined. It is very important not to over-whisk or over-fold the batter or it will lose volume. Pour into the prepared pan.
• In a medium bowl, toss the apples, cinnamon, lemon zest and remaining 2 teaspoons granulated sugar and pour on top of the batter. Sprinkle on the chocolate chips and bake until the cake is golden brown and springs back to the touch, 40 to 50 minutes. Release the pan when cooled and sprinkle the cake with confectioners' sugar.
