Cookie Butter Bundt Cake😋

I was ahead of the game for this year’s Sweets Swap! 💕🍰🍪🥐 A huge thank you to @elainarcheronweek for putting this event on again this year. My first (and hopefully not only) contribution is this Cookie Butter Bundt Cake I made for Thanksgiving! It came out so good (though, I am tempted to exclude the almond extract the next time I make it). The recipe is pretty simple and definitely delicious!

Invisible Apple Cake (Sweet Swaps!)

2 1/4 to 1/2 pounds (1 to 1.15kg) apples, such as Granny Smith or Golden Delicious

Juice of half a lemon

2 tablespoons (30 grams) unsalted butter, melted

2/3 cup (130 grams) granulated sugar

3/4 teaspoon kosher salt

3 large eggs

1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste

1 cup (130 grams) all-purpose flour

1/2 cup (120 ml) milk, any kind

Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)

Heat oven: to 375°F (190°C).

A very simple cake that had custard-like batter and apples. Perfect when Elain is feeling lazy but still wants to bake. We've all been there!

Peel, core and slice the apples as thin as possible. Toss with lemon juice and layer inside a parchment-lined tube pan.

In a large bowl, mix all the batter ingredients just until combined.

2 tablespoons (30 grams) unsalted butter, melted

2/3 cup (130 grams) granulated sugar

3/4 teaspoon kosher salt

3 large eggs

1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste

1 cup (130 grams) all-purpose flour

1/2 cup (120 ml) milk, any kind

Pour the batter over the apples. Jiggle them so that the batter coats as many apples as possible.

Bake for 45 minutes. Dust with powdered sugar once cooled.

Serve to your favorite Shadowsinger.

Try to fool Cassian by telling him that it's calorie free.

Enjoy!

Stay sweet and deadly.

Elain's Sweets Swap, December 2025

Hi team Elain, long time no See 🙈

As the event name suggests, there will be a change this year! Last year's cookie exchange was so much fun, but a few people told us they would have loved to join in with other sweet treats as well... so we are holding Elain's Sweets Swap instead!

We'd love to share all of your baking adventures from December 1st to 21st this year.

We know it's a little early, we haven't even had Halloween yet, but we wanted to give everyone time to find or perfect their contributions before December!

Please tag our account in any contributions, and use the hashtag "ElainsSweetsSwap" too.

Anything sweet goes, from the humble cookie to the most extravagant cake.

We can't wait to see what you bake! 👩‍🍳

Hi. Any chance I can share the Elain sweet swap on Reddit? Thanks

Hi and thanks for asking!

You can absolutely share any original post that the elainarcheronweek account makes, but with individual contributions we'd recommend asking for OP permission if you want to do anything more than sharing a link to the post. Happy baking!
