Some of my students & friends have asked for my favorite Apple Cake recipe again this year!

We also shared some homemade Caramel Corn yesterday @ Fright Fest and the gals wanted the recipe for that too. Enjoy them both, they are Kelemen Family traditions here!

Grandmas Fresh Apple Cake
3 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp cinnamon
1 1/2 tsp salt
2 cup sugar
3/4 cup oil
1 tsp vanilla
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup chopped nuts
4 cups coarsely chopped apples

Mix together dry ingredients
Stir remaining ingredients except apples into dry ingredieints
Batter will be very thick
Stir in apples (you will need to use your hands to combine the mixture)
Pour into an ungreased tube or Bundt pan
Bake in pre heated 350 oven for 1 1/2 hours

Usually I dust the top with powdered sugar but this cake is unbelievably decadent with Homemade Cream Cheese Frosting.

For the frosting
1 stick butter
8 oz cream cheese
1 tsp vanilla
16 oz box powdered sugar
Blend until smooth, pour over cooled cake!


CARAMEL CORN

1 cup butter
2 cups packed brown sugar
1 tsp salt
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1 tsp baking soda
8 quarts popped popcorn

Pre Heat oven to 200 degrees.

Over medium heat, combine first 4 ingredients in a medium saucepan & boil for 5 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in baking soda. Stir well. Pour over popped popcorn in a large roaster or pan. Stir to coat well. Bake for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes. Spread on waxed paper to dry.
