There are so amazing recipes out there. I know a lot of people go online looking for recipes and some even find their way to my blog which is great!
I love buying cookbooks and then just going page by page checking out the recipes. Sometimes I put a little piece of paper to mark the place and sometimes I write the recipe name and page number down on a piece of paper and then stick it in the front of the book. A disadvantage to the latter is sometimes the paper drops out and then I can't find the cookbook when I find the paper later. (You don't know how many cookbooks I have. I keep saying I am going to sort through them and take ones I don't want down to the thrift shop and let them sell them, but when I pick up a cookbook I haven't seen in months or years, I start finding recipes that sound good.)
Today's recipe for Apple German Chocolate Cake was super delicious. I made it and took it to the thrift shop because it was super easy. I like taking cakes to them that don't have to be frosted. The nuts and chocolate chips on top make a pretty topping on the cake. The recipe was in Taste of Home The NEW Potluck cookbook.
APPLE GERMAN CHOCOLATE CAKE
1 can (21 ounces) apple pie filling
1 package German chocolate cake mix
3 eggs
3/4 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
1/2 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9 x 13 - inch baking pan. Set aside.
Place the pie filling in a large mixing bowl, and beat the filling on medium to chop the apples. (If you have some slices that don't break up, cut them with a knife.)
Add dry cake mix and eggs. Blend on low to combine all ingredients. Scrape the sides of the bowl. Beat on medium speed for 5 minutes. Pour batter into pan. Sprinkle with nuts and chocolate chips.
Bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until done.
Cool completely in pan on wire rack before cutting.
