... plus a stick of butter and a cup of heavy cream keeps the doctor in business. I made something tasty this weekend for the 12th annual St. Patrick's Day feast chez Pensive Frog. In my opinion, you have to have something really tasty for dessert to make up for the corned beef. This caramelized apple cake fits the bill. Everything about this recipe is really good, from the soft tart apples, to the mouthwatering caramel sauce, to the moist spicy cake. The best part is that you can do 95% of the work ahead of time, then mix the ingredients together right before dinner and pop it in the oven. A little over an hour later, and the cake it done, all warm, gooey, and ready to gobble down. That's why I don't have any pictures :)
