One word - WOW. I thought that the butterscotch might be guilding the lily, but it's definitely a key component to this sumptuous dessert! When your guests fall silent when gnoshing, you've definitely got a winner on your hands.

I made this yesterday and it is delicious however,  my cake wasn't as tall or as pretty.  Is it supposed to be like a "pudding cake" only firmer? I know it was baked long enough and it didn't seem soggy actually.  Maybe my large apples were too large.  I used an aluminum tube pan

Absolutely fantastic!  This is one of the best cakes I've ever had, bar none.  It's a fair amount of work, but definitely worth it!  Everyone loved it.

I used soy milk in the toffee sauce, instead of heavy cream, and it was great!

I made this for a dessert contest at our holiday lunch at work, and it beat out 23 other entrants.  I substituted 1 cup of unsweetened applesauce for 1 cup of the oil (so it was 1/4 cup oil + 1 cup applesauce instead of 1 1/4 cups oil) and I skipped the caramelized apples and ice cream - the toffee sauce is decadent enough!  Also, I recommend you don't start the glaze part until the cake is almost done baking. So the glaze and the cake are both hot when you pour on the glaze.
