Apple Cream Cheese Cake

So the last this year cake from seasonal fruit is here. Frozen fruits, bananas and similar stuff will have to be used in a while. This Apple Cream Cheese Cake became so popular, that I saw varied recipes for it everywhere, even a week after I made it, it turned up in a newsletter of a shop. Like I say, it is everywhere 😀 My version contains vanilla sponge cake, which I used in Raspberry Chocolate Cake Bars, apples cooked with vanilla powder custard and cream cheese and whipped cream icing. You may know No-bake apple cake with biscuits, I was inspired by it. I didn´t want to use biscuits, I rather used a sponge cake. This sponge cake is without baking powder, so if apples are too juicy, they don´t soak in a cake. You also don´t get a “hill” in the center on a cake, which usually happens to cakes after baking. Apple with powder custard are a classic, a very tasty one indeed. They work great as a filling too. On top of that, a simple icing made with cream cheese and whipped cream, a bit of cocoa and a fall cake is ready to be eaten.
