This cake was really good! I made it for an event and people really enjoyed it! I made the recipe twice, and the only issue was the moisture level in the cake. I added the apple butter as suggested by putting 3:4 of the batter in then adding the apple in a thin layer and swirling. I found that the apple butter layer got very moist and tended to break apart, while the areas without it were on the dry side. If I make it again, I would try probably make the batter, swirl the apple butter evenly into it, then pour everything into the pan. Overall, it was very tasty though!
