A slight modification of the original recipe means that this cake was make solely with pantry staples (including the grad student staple, rum). Even my realization that I was out of both milk and vanilla did not stop me from having my just desserts.

Apple-Rum Cake
Self-proclaimed sweet tooth of the group, I often find myself craving an after dinner treat. Or as it happened today, after lunch. And as a poor grad student, I don't often have the opportunity to go out and buy 70% Belgian chocolate or a quart of fresh raspberries for some decadent creation. I, therefore, will find myself searching my brain, recipe books and cupboards to find the recipe and ingredients that will satisfy my fondness for dessert with whatever is on hand (otherwise know as "now"). This is one of those creations. Apple-Rum Cake.

I will have to get used to this "taking pictures of food" thing. This cake was cooked much earlier this afternoon (as is evidenced by the fact that nearly half is gone). Also, next time I will try to take pictures during the process.
ReplyDeleteIS THIS MARK BITTMAN'S BOOZY APPLE CAKE?!?!?!
ReplyDeleteIt's almost scary that you knew that.
ReplyDeleteHAHA! I made a version using Granny Smith apples and Hennessy. I know from pantry desperation. Yours looks great and I officially now want to soak ALL my cakes.
