How to make it
- Cake:-
- Place the apples & raisins & pecans in a large bowl & pour the brandy over them. Let sit for 1 hour
- Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees
- Grease & flour a Bundt pan (10" x 4")
- Line just the bottom of the pan with wax paper & grease & flour the wax paper
- In the large bowl of an electric mixer, place the cake mix, butter, water, eggs & spices
- Mix on low speed for about 2 mins or until well combined
- Stir in apple/brandy mixture & mix by hand til well combined
- Pour into prepared pan
- Bake 1 hr 10 mins to 1 hr 20 mins til a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Don't be concerned if baking time takes a little longer
- Cool in pan on wire rack for 15 mins
- Turn out of pan onto wire rack
- Immediately poke deep holes all over the top of the cake. - I use a chopstick cause it makes holes big enough for the sauce to seep into
- .
- Brandy Sauce:-
- Heat all ingrediants together in a 1 quart saucepan, stirring often
- Boil for 2 mins, stirring constantly
- Spoon sauce over the top of the cake so that the sauce runs into the poked holes & down the sides. Use all the sauce
- Cool completely, about 2 hrs. Store loosely, covered
- .
- NOTE:- Cake is even better the 2nd day as the flavors have had time to blend
