COFFEE APPLE CAKE / KEK KOPI EPAL

I saw this in my friend's blog, MUNATYCOOKING from UAE...I felt in love with it when Muna said that this cake is a winner, which has coffee,fruit and a dessert all in one. A Coffee cake which really has coffee in it. The recipe calls for pecan but I substitute it with roasted walnut..OMG it was really awesome..crunchy  from the outside, soft and moist inside. The coffee and apple really add flavour to the cake. Perfect for tea. Trust me ..it's scrumptious and easy to prepare. If you can't finish your apple at home try this....you will never regret. Thanks Muna for the great recipe.
