My mother, grandmother and several of their family members made this cake for church dinners. They were always all eaten up! They were from Carter County, KY. I have seen other recipes that used a biscuit dough and apple butter for the filling but my family always used the "molasses cookie" recipe for the cake and cooked dried apples for the filling just like you did. The only difference is that they rolled out the dough and cut it to fit the skillet they baked it in. Thanks for sharing. What a precious memory!
My mom and her sister made these and I loved these. They were from way back in the Appalachian mts. They told the same story about the cake. I loved their stories.
Hey Missy, Kenzie and Roger! Thanks for showing us how you make your delicious apple cake. My Mom made apple cakes especially for my Dad. Your apple stack cake looks delicious. Thanks for sharing with us. Blessings ❤❤
The best cake ever from Manchester ky my grandma did one every Christmas and Thanksgiving we. Moved to indiana when I was ten but allways went back to ky during holiday s love ky
I've made this, but I used apple butter because that was what my dad told me my grandmother used. She also did things with dried apples. Anyway, it's good no matter how you make it!
Molasses is a product of sugar cane. Sorghum is a product of the Sorghum plant. A plant grown for cattle fodder and also varieties for the canes that can be milled for the sweet juice that is boiled down for sorghum syrup. Nothing to do with sugar cane. Good sorghum syrup has a strong flavor. I remember my grandfather would say something was as slow as Sorghum in January. Meaning it was so thick that in a cold winter house, you could hardly pour it on your biscuits. My Brothers Mother-in-Law who was from Woodbine, Ky would talk about the old timey stack cakes. A woman would make a cake layer in a a big skillet, kinda a sweet egg biscuit dough to add to the stack cake. Add the dried apple filling and hold it for a few days until all that sweetness had moistened and softened the cake. (a little brandy or Bourbon "red whisky" would have been extra good,) Never had one, still waiting on an old KY black walnut cake for my birthday with boiled brown sugar icing.
This is a great recipe- I'm from Johnson County KY living in TX, glad I found your channel...we have had our share of apple stack cakes over the years! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
Thanks for this recipe. My cousin Carrie brought this to one of our Reunions (in Millstone) many years ago and she was going to bring me the recipe to the next reunion. Unfortunately she passed away at the age of 90 a few months after that reunion and I thought I would never have the recipe or even know how to put together ect. It was so delicious. Can't wait to make this.
❤ Please like and Share ❤ Kenzie are you actually going to take a bite this time😂😂😂 I love the take that you thought your Mom was going to edit out... She didn't it was hilarious😂😂😂

@jessicathestar I love that she does sift the flour and uses a paper bowl to hold the eggs! Love that you pray before bites! Excellent!

I’ve been wondering who that good looking man is with the beard
I still use a potato masher just like that one.
Looks so yummy
Sorghum is processed longer than black molasses. It's why Sorghum has a little stronger taste.
Hey Missy! I can’t wait to see how to make this 😊
Hope you like it!
PLEASE ADD THE MADAGASCAR VANILLA EXTRACT INFORMATION…
THANK YOU 🙏

Can you use fresh fruit
If you don’t have dried apples you can use apple butter. Yes you can cook fresh apples and use also
I was born in Pikeville
My Maw made these
