This glazed applesauce cake recipe from A Couple Cooks<\/a> features the coziest spice cake topped with a tangy vanilla glaze.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

If you’re looking for a cozy baking project for the weekend ahead, I wholeheartedly recommend giving this applesauce cake from my friends Alex and Sonja<\/a> a try. \u2661<\/p>\n

We literally made this cake almost immediately upon receiving their new cookbook<\/a> in the mail, because (a) it looked so wonderfully fall-ish and cozy (b) we realized we already had all of the ingredients on hand and (c) we had company arriving in town and needed a sweet treat to share stat! Well to say that the cake disappeared quickly would be a bit of an understatement. Everyone absolutely adored it!<\/p>\n

The cake itself is perfectly soft and fluffy, made with the coziest warming spices, and lightly sweetened with applesauce and brown sugar. It’s then topped with a simple vanilla sour cream glaze, whose tangy flavor perfectly balances the sweetness of the cake. It’s one of those desserts that makes your home smell absolutely divine. It’s quick and easy to prep, especially if you follow the suggestions in the cookbook for divvying up tasks with a partner. (The cookbook<\/a> is a big celebration of cooking with those you love, so it’s full of recipes and tips to make your time together in the kitchen all the more delicious and meaningful.) It’s arguably even more delicious served the next morning for breakfast with a cup of hot coffee. And whether you choose to bake this cake the fall or — as Alex and Sonja also recommend — serve it with fresh peaches and ice cream in the summer, it’s one of those recipes that is pretty much guaranteed to be a hit a crowd no matter the season.<\/p>\n

Anyway, as you all know, cooking together with friends and family is one of my favorite things ever. So I highly recommend checking out this cookbook if you’re looking for more tips and inspiration for spending time in the kitchen together. And I highly recommend giving this cake a try — I know you will love it!<\/p>\n
