A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

this is a great, real German Apple cake, like my mother did long time ago. in winter it is Nice to eat it hot, in summer It's best eaten after one or two days. I would add whipped cream. mix cream, when stiff add 2 teaspoon sugar and three drops vanilla extract. only Germans use vanilla sugar in the world! one packet of vanilla sugar equals 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Thanks for this Nice cake recepy!

where can I get packaged vanilla sugar?

I lost my mom's recipe (she's from Germany), and this one looked similar to her's so I tried it. We're going to an Oktoberfest party and I'm taking it along with a bottle of Bunchen Riesling. The Apfelkuchen is delicious--my husband and I just tried a small piece, and it's similar to my childhood memories. The dough was a lot goopier in this recipe when I added it to the pan, but I moved the oven rack down one level, and it baked nicely. I used 3/8 cup sugar for the 3 oz. sugar, and used 1 t. vanilla instead of the vanilla sugar, since I always have that on hand, and it worked just fine.

I am a male caregiver to my wife who loves this applecake...no matter how I make it come out. I have made three times. The first was the best. The last two times I couldn't get the topping to stay grandular; it clumped up instead of like the first time was able to be sprinkled evenly over the entire top. Friends told me to add flour if it clumps up which I did. The butter was good and hard, I used a pastry utensil and I can't understand nor remember (I'm almost 80) what I did CORRECTLY in the first baking that I'm doing wrong now. I love the idea I don't need to proof the yeast but put everything in one mixing bowl with the warm milk and the dough comes out SUPER. The dough is too thin to spread by hand; I use a spatula. Everything I had to learn about cooking/baking I learned by watching my wife cook for 37 years before her full stroke 20 years ago. I love your Website and NEED it! napler, Naples, FL
I had to look-up the conversion (one ounce = 2 tablespoons). I'm trying to duplicate a family recipe that I misplaced. The consistency of this dough was much wetter than the one I used to make. I think adding 1 more cup of flour fixed it. My old recipe didn't have "vanilla sugar."
I am a male caregiver who does all the cooking for just my wife and myself. I tried the recipe with coconut and yellow cake mix. It was too runny probably because I used Macintosh apples mainly and one Granny. I would like to try this recipe with yeast as that is the way I liked it in Germany but I don't know what or where to get "a package of vanilla-sugar. Is there a substitute? Another thing, what does 3 ounces of sugar come to in tablespoons or teaspoons? I sure would appreciate a quick comment on this [email address removed to safeguard your privacy]

This is a very easy apple cake recipe. Just as good as the ones from Germany and already converted into american measures - great. Everybody loved it. I would use a little more of each for the crumbles.
