Best Apple Cake Ever!​

Recipe Description

A recipe from Cooking Light magazine that'll knock your socks off! The taste and texture are perfect. I have substituted low-fat and regular cream cheese for the fat-free cream cheese as well as used 3 ounces cream cheese and 3 ounces fat-free plain yogurt as a substitute. I'm fairly certain that sour cream would work as well. ​

Preparation Steps:

Spray an 8 inch springform pan with cooking spray.
Allow butter, cream cheese and eggs to sit out 15 minutes before starting.
Peel and chop apples.
Pre-heat oven to 350*.​

6 ounces fat-free cream cheese

1/4 tsp salt
2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 cup sugar
3 cups peeled, chopped apples(3 large apples)​

1/16 slices​

Directions:

In electric mixer, beat cream cheese, butter, sugar and vanilla at low speed until blended. Add eggs and beat at medium-high speed until airy(about 4 minutes)scraping the bowl several times during beating.
In a separate bowl, blend together flour, salt and baking powder. Add to wet mixture and mix until well combined.
