TWD - First-of-Fall Apple Bundt

This week’s Tuesdays with Dorie recipe (Dorie’s Everyday Cakes) is First-of-Fall Apple Bundt. This cake is flavoured with spices and apples, and topped with a delicious optional not optional caramel glaze, to give it a real autumn flavour.

It’s spring in the Southern hemisphere, but apple cakes are for all year round, and this one was delicious.

 Look at those juicy chunks of apple!

TWD - Lisbon Chocolate Cake

 This week’s Tuesdays with Dorie recipe is the last one from Baking with Dorie. It is the Lisbon Chocolate Cake.

This cake is a chocolate mud stule cake topped with a mousse like ganache topping. It contains as much chocolate and cream as you are imagining.

My cake is not remotely like the elegant dessert pictured in the book. However, it tasted good - the base cake is dense and chocolatey and rich, while the topping is creamy and smooth.
