Cream Cheese Apple Cake

This delicious cake is made moist by adding cream cheese to the batter. It’s filled with the wonderful flavor of apples, cinnamon, brown sugar and pecans. Oh my gosh I couldn’t believe how good it was!

The cake is brimming with chopped apples that sit in a cake batter made with butter and cream cheese. The cake is very tender, moist and delicious! I used 3 large Cameo Apples which are crisp and firm. It may seem like 3 large apples is to many but please use all of them! You’ll love it!
