Beverly Nye's Apple Torte Cake

Printer-friendly version

This recipe is a family (and friends) favorite. It came from my mom’s friend, Beverly Nye. My mom made it when I was a kid and our family always gobbled it right up. Mom and I both admit that we could make the cake now and eat the whole thing –just the two of us! It is so good and moist that it is delicious with or without the caramel topping. It is one of our family’s favorite ways to eat apples!
