Say it with me…”Ap-Fel-Koochen.” If you love apple cake, you must must must bake this cake as soon as humanly possible. Many years ago (actually 8 years ago) when I married my husband, my father-in-law asked me to make him a traditional German cake called Zwetschgenkuchen, just like his mother used to bake for him.
