Apple Spiced Bundt!
On Saturday I made it for the guys that run the garage I park my car in. You see, in San Francisco it is very rare to find a garage (conveniently open 24 hrs- steps from your front door) that charges less than $250 a month. Not wanting to pay that much, I offered to pay $200 and bring them baked goods every week! They happily excepted the offer!
And here we are at week 2 with a delicious bundt cake (week 1: white chocolate chip macadamia nut cookies).
After licking the bowl and spatula clean- it was not hard to decide what dessert to make for a dinner party I was attending the following night….
So moist it just melts in your mouth
There is a nice, surprising layer of Apples and Walnuts in the middle
Boring…
…but not for long
