I've been making this cake for more than 40 yrs. It was my mom's recipe, that she found in a newspaper and made often. It's quick to put together, never fails to please, and can be made with/without the apples and still be a winner. Top with ice cream, whip cream, fruit sauce or just eat plain, with a little powdered sugar. There isn't a variety of apple that I haven't used. They all worked well. I needed a place to store a treasure - Zaar is it!

SERVES 4 -6 , 1 cake (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1/4 lb unsalted butter (room temp.)
1 cup sugar (you can use a little less if you like, I do)
2 large eggs (room temp and well beaten)
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup sour cream, Room temp is best (Lt. Sour Cream is OK)
2 large apples, peeled, cored, quartered and sliced thin
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon sugar

1
In a med. size bowl, cream the softened butter and the sugar together.
2
Add the 2 well beaten eggs to the butter and sugar mixture and combine well.
3
Add the Vanilla and mix in well.
4
Combine the Flour, Baking Powder, Baking Soda and Salt, (I sift together) in a separate bowl.
5
Starting with flour and ending with flour.
6

7
Add 1/2 of the sour cream and mix well.
8
Add another 1/3rd of the flour mixture and mix well.
9

10

11
Quarter, peel and slice "thin" the 2 apples.
12
Place the apple slices in the dough (about 1/2 way in) Over lap the slices to make look pretty. Fill in small spaces with a smaller piece of apple. Fill the top of the dough with apple slices.
13

14
