Looking for a delicious new dessert recipe to satisfy your sweet tooth? Look no further than this Apple Spice Cake with Caramel Icing recipe.
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F and getting out a 9-inch cake pan. Next, gather all of your ingredients:
For the cake:
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 2 tsp baking powder
– 1 tsp baking soda
– 1 tsp salt
– 2 tsp cinnamon
– 1 tsp nutmeg
– 1/2 tsp ground cloves
– 1/2 tsp allspice
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
– 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
– 2 large eggs
– 2 cups peeled and finely chopped apples
– 1 cup vanilla Greek yogurt
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
For the icing:
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter
– 1 cup brown sugar
– 1/4 cup milk
– 2 cups powdered sugar
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and allspice. In a separate large bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes. Add in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, mix in the chopped apples, yogurt, and vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely before adding the icing.
To make the icing, melt the butter and brown sugar in a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat. Once melted, stir in the milk until combined. Cook the mixture for an additional 2 minutes, then remove from heat and stir in the powdered sugar until smooth.
Spread the icing over the top of the cooled cake, then slice and serve. Trust us, this delicious cake is sure to be a crowd-pleaser at your next gathering or just as a treat for yourself.
