I didn't believe the recipe when my friend Lesley gave it to me, but having tasted the slice, and loving it, I tried it and had sucess the first time I made it, eveyone loved it. The family call it my "stolen apple slice" It freezes very well!! UPDATE Jubes used a gluten free cake mix, and reports that it turned out very well. Nice dessert for those people that cant tolerate gluten!

SERVES 15 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 1 (18 ounce) box vanilla cake mix (cheapest available)

  • 1 cup coconut
  • 125 g melted butter

Other ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Mix first 3 ingredients together: Press into slice tin, (lined with baking paper) and cook in a moderate oven 20-25 minutes, til very lightly browned.
  2. 2
    Cool for 10 minutes and then spread cooked apple carefully over base.
  3. 3
    Pour over about 400gr light sour cream, spread out with the back of a spoon.
  4. 4
    Sprinkle with cinnamon and bake a further 10 to 15 minutes.
  5. 5
    Hints: You'll need to cook about a kilo of Granny Smiths for this, (or use canned apples, but NOT the ones without sugar.) Peel and slice your apples and cook with 1/2 cup water, and sugar to taste.
  6. 6
    Drain and cool before use.
  7. 7
    Be generous with the baking paper, it makes it easier to lift the slice out of the tin.
  8. 8
    Cut the slice when it is cold.
  9. 9
    Nice warm too, but cut in the tin.

Made for Australia/NZ Swap #22 The last "pie" I made. was as a newly-wed, 1/2 century ago. Since then, Mrs Smith has been my pie chef. I truly enjoyed making and eating this !! DH is not so fond of sour cream (and I had full strength) but I thought it was wonderful! Perhaps my pie dish was smaller, but next time I will make the "crust" thinner — was like a BIG hard cookie ! Thanks mummamills. Not being certain of a "Moderate" oven, I baked at 350 degrees F.- 27 minutes for the crust, then 17 minutes for the final bake. I also used a 21 ounce can of pie apples. I think the DDs and DGKs will like.

    Great recipe mummamills. I made this slice gluten-free by using a gluten-free cake mix (Basco brand). Turned out great. Very similar to a recipe in the "4 Ingredients" cookbbok, only they dont use the cinnaomon on top and use can of pie apples. I also think this slice improves in a day or so

    Oh yum I have made APPLE SLICE for the Zaar recipe swap # 17, 2008. It is to die for with a creamy topping . Bite through the soft creamy top, through the slightly crunchy apples, and the the cakey/biscuit like base. Such a wonderful variety of different textures. This is in no way boring. Thanks for a great recipe, that will be making it's dreamy appearance on the table in a couple of days at my sons 7th birthday

    Nice crunchy base and no taste is overpowering all meld well together. I cooked some granny smiths using Apple Pie Filling. With only 4 of us I will be freezing the left overs for later. Thank you mummamills for a new dessert recipe. 12th September 2007 - just used the last of the frozen dessert and it tasted as delicious as the first.
