I have some thinky work to do this afternoon, which is why I've given myself permission to bake a cake.

It's time away from the computer, but not time away from my brain. 🙃

Arequipe (dulce de leche) and apple bundt cake, here I come!




Progress photos. 🙂 It baked perfectly at 50 minutes (30 min open, 20 min covered with foil), and... in 10 minutes I'll see how good a job I did with flouring the bundt pan and keeping the apple filling from the edges. 🤞🏻

🙃 The Canadian urge to find something to garnish this is strong, but in Colombia a *lot* of cakes are simply two plain layers of yellow or chocolate with a smear of arequipe (dulce de leche) between them, and/or maybe a dusting of powdered sugar. So the fact that mine is loaded with apples with a dulce de leche drizzle is fine. No garnish needed. *Maybe* a scoop of vanilla ice cream, but we'll see.

...Kinda looks like a giant maple doughnut mated with a cruller, though, eh? 😅

I adore that dirty gif. :) With ice cream it is!

@MLClark The Adeptus Mechanicus would deploy legions of War Machines for a piece of that lol
