Beautiful! I like applebutter. I remember in 3rd grade we made it and Im 62. Corey you and mawmaw are funny together. Happy Mothers day mawmaw.

[@micheller.5941]

Not criticizing just offering advise!! You are supposed to assemble them while warm and refrigerator overnight before serving. The apple butter with soak into the cake. They stay together when cut!! My grandmother made them and they were soooooo good!! God bless you!!

[@carlenebarnes8615]

My husband's grandmother made these. They where so good. She dried her apples and made it with them. Not sure how. This one looks so good. Thank you and happy mother's day to you.

I watch another Appalachian channel where the lady makes this cake as well. It was handed down to her from relatives and it’s her favorite cake. She uses fresh apples to make her cake. It sounds delicious! I would like to make it at least once. Thanks for sharing your recipe. Grandma, you could have gotten six even portions out of your first batch of dough. I think your problem was your pans were bigger than nine inches. I could be wrong on that part but you still could have divided that dough into six evenly portions. All that work for more dough. The cakes are supposed to be much thinner. Find a KZbin video on making this cake. You still see what they do so you won’t have to work quite so hard and long. We do however, appreciate what you’ve done for us to make this cake. What you do is put the cake together and wait 24 hours after it’s put together before you eat it. That’s the whole purpose is to allow that apple butter to seep into each layer. And you do put apple butter on the top layer and then sprinkle powdered sugar on top of too.

I love sorghum molasses on a hot buttered biscuit

[@cindykane6227]

Corey, you dont know what your missing, molasses is delicious. My mom use to make homeade rye bread we would eat it hot out of oven, with molasses, or sorghum. Yum, mammaws cake looks YUMMY!

[@patriciawalls7037]

My mother in law made the stack cakes, used iron skillet to bake layers in, she always made 11 layers, cooked apples that were spiced, no molasses. I am sure yours is delicious, my sister inlaw and I have a stack cake, baking day sometimes. And bake several of them.

[@justjanie7252]

I grew up eating apple butter and my family made it too. It's so delicious on toast especially with Melted butter.

That's one solid cake I think to get six slices you were suppose to put less in each pan. Usually thinner slices in a stack cake.

[@starjazmyn2094]

Exactly!

[@vernedadavis367]

My mom used as a regular eight or nine inch cake pan that she used for everyday use. And then my perfect cakes and that's how you come up with six layers. She used to make 7 and 8 layers. And it said in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days before we could eat it for everything can soak into the cake. Oh my goodness it was so good honey. You are doing fine don't worry about it.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Looking forward to seeing this and spending some time with Mamaw and you Corey ❤️ Have a Blessed Mothers Day Mamaw 🩷 Happy Mother’s Day to all of the moms out there 🩷🌺

[@dianehelensarno2060]

If you put flour on your table you roll the dough out with your rolling pin.Thats how you get it paper thin.It fits nicer in a pan with smooth edges. Your cake is beautiful but to thick.Great job it’s an intense cake to make!! Yummy ❤

[@TexasBlueBonnet61]

My grandmother never made stack cakes but a dear friend of hers would often visit and spend the day baking. One of the things she would bake was stack cake. She sometimes used blackberry jam between the layers, other times it was my grandma's homemade apple butter. She made a thick glaze icing to spread on top and let it drip down the sides. She wouldn't cut it until it had "rested" several hours, so the jam or apple butter could soak into the cookie-like layer.

My Mom, who has gone on to heaven, used to make stack cakes. They were so good and she was a wonderful cook. Like you she made homemade bread, rolls, biscuits, and cakes of all kinds. Mom even made homemade hamburger and hotdog buns as well as homemade donuts. She made an Orange Slice Candy Cake that was so good. (I tried to make the Orange Slice Candy cake one time. It was expensive to make because of all the ingredients. My cake would not get done so I baked it longer. When I took it out of the oven, it was so heavy. We couldn't slice it or even eat it. It was terrible!! My husband said they could play ball with it. Lol) She was a cook at my elementary school for years. Back then, they had some mighty good meals in the cafeteria. Now, they all this processed foods they fix for our children. I wish I could be half the cook she was. I miss my Mom so much and I plan on seeing her some day!!

[@trishaporte]

At our school we had many of the prize winners from the county fair. We had the best of the best! The home made rolls were divine. While they were being baked the scent of the rolls would waft through out the school! 💖

Love Apple butter, I can get just about all ove the usa. If not make our own. Looks delicious 😋

[@joannepowell4663]

My Mom and then Sister used to make these for Thanksgiving and Christmas. They made it a couple of days ahead and kept it wrapped tightly until time to eat it. The longer it sits, the better it is. What precious memories this video brought to my mind!

The apple butter my husband made and canned last Fall was pretty dark. It sure was tasty😋

[@cece2347]

I've heard of stack but but didn't know the ingredients. Defiantly will make it. I love spice cake, molasses and apple butter. My mothers family were farmers from the mountain area of Pennsylvania and used to make apple butter outdoors in a large black kettle. Ill never forget that memory and the taste of that apple butter 😋

[@gnas3390]

My grandpa's mother made these cakes but I think she used dried apples in between the layers, I was very young so I can't be certain of that. The cake sure was good though. She was from Tennessee. I had no idea how much time and effort went into making these cakes. Wow. Thank you for sharing this with us. Thank you for your prayers. God bless you Mamaw and Corey and God bless everyone watching too!❤ Happy Mother's Day to all the mama's and grandmama's.

My grandmother made a Doberge cake . It was 6 to 8 very thin layers.

Good with milk or coffee. ❤❤❤ Also you have the sweetest prayers. Reminds me of my mother who’s gone home to be with the Lord ❤❤❤❤

I love me some apple butter by the way, and my mom gave it to me as a young child probably 50 years ago now, and we lived in Michigan then. When we got to Kansas where I’ve lived ever since, we always had apple butter, it’s fantastic on a toasted English muffin with lots of butter!!

Back in the 50’s I remember sitting up in the kitchen chair with my elbows on the table watching my grandma either making a cake or pies. She would stick her tongue out a little while concentrating and it made me laugh! She would purposely stick her tongue out a little just to make me laugh and my mom always wondered what we were giggling about lol. Cherish your days and projects you do with your Mawmaw, Corey. When all we have are our precious memories, it’s what makes us cherish the Lord even more for letting us have our memories to remember.

[@DianeHardin-ri4qt]

My granny taught me how to make this cake years ago. I’m 66 years old. It was my dad‘s favorite. I would bake it for him after his mom died. She always baked her layers in a 10 inch iron skillet and she put one cup of batter in the skillet and she made it six layers tall, but she used dried apples and she cooked them with cinnamon and nutmeg and sugar, and they were delicious and she would bake it one day it sat in the refrigerator and you ate it the next day, when the juice from the apples soaked into the layers, it held together beautifully and it tasted heavenly best cake I’ve ever eaten. The story I was told about the stack cake is that it was used as a sort of a wedding cake and everybody that came to the wedding would bring a layer and then they would take apple butter or dried apples in between each layer and the more people that attended, the higher, the wedding cake was , I’m from Cumberland gap Tennessee back in the mountains. Thanks for the memory.
