A colleague of mine at work gifted me with maple syrup he made from a tree in his back yard and I made this cake to share with our office. OMG, this is amazing. I’ve never made nor tried a gooey butter cake before and this is one to knock your socks off. Everyone that tried it could not get enough. Thanks so much for sharing!

In reply to Claire. This didn't even last an hour when I made it, but I don't see why it would need to be eaten day of! I'm sure if you wrap it well it will last for a few days :)

This looks soooo delicious!! I just have one concern – does the fact that it’s yeasted mean it needs eating on the day of baking? I’m guessing it doesn’t freeze well? I so badly want to give it a try but probably can’t justify eating a whole cake in one day… ;-)

Hello, I would love to try this recipe but I have an aversion to anything that requires yeast. Okay…it’s a fear. For some reason yeast in baking and I don’t get along. This may mean I’m not the real thing (baking wise). Here’s the question. Is there an alternative crust or a quick cure or note of wisdom you can provide as it relates to my aversion-fear?

In reply to Emma. I think it should be OK! I've never tried that but Apples in general aren't too too watery :)

I’ve made this cake before- and it is AWESOME- but I had a question…. do you think adding apple slices to the bottom of the pan and then pouring the custard on top would make it too watery?

I’ve never tried a gooey butter cake from scratch before. I’ve always made it with cake mix. I’d love to try this version. It sounds divine.
