    I make something very similiar to this, I use apple cider instead of milk/water, and i "marinate" the sliced apples in cinnamon sugar before adding to the cake, and then drizzle the remaining juices from that onto the cake too before baking...super yummy! - 6/12/09

    Do you wait until the ingredients in Step #1 have doubled before you add the ingredients from Step #2? Kath - 6/12/09
