I needed to use up some apples, so I made this and took it to work the next day and everyone raved about it. It was soooooooo moist and had so much flavor. I used 3 large apples and substituted pecans for the walnuts. Other than that, I followed the recipe as written. As other reviewers have said, the brown sugar glaze is scrumptious. It makes a lot of glaze. I used about 3/4 of the glaze and I'm going to use the rest on some banana bread that I am making tonight. Thanks for another great recipe, Kittencal.

This recipe is fabulous!! I made because I had some apples that had to be used up and it was gone in a flash! The glaze is AMAZING!! I loved it so much I made a spice cake the next day (no apples left to make this recipe :( ) and topped it with the glaze and took some leftover and poured into a squirt bottle to use whenever I like!!! Thanks kittencal for another Fabulous recipe!!

I haven't made the cake yet...this rating is for the Brown Sugar Glaze. Yum! I topped a pumpkin spice cake with it (Pumpkin Bundt Cake II #3559), and it was totally delicious! UPDATE: I made the cake and it is fantastic, also a 5-star recipe. Very moist and flavorful. I used MacIntosh apples. It tastes even better on Day 2.

I just had some of this apple cake. I doubled the recipe and made 1 cake in a bundt pan and two loaves. I only made one batch of the glaze thinking that would be enough. The glaze is NOT to be missed. I ended up making the SECOND batch of glaze too. The amount Kittencal states is perfect (don't try to skimp on this amazing glaze). One tip is I used toothpicks and poked holes in my cake so that the glaze could seep into the cake better. So many people are enjoying this. I gave one loaf to a friend and will take another to work. The rest will be split among many friends. (Also, I used my food processor to dice the apples after I peeled them). I used Granny Smiths and found them to work wonderfully with this perfect super moist cake. Kitten - Another wonderful winner of a recipe. I will definitely make this again. Thank you!!
