Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 F (180C).
  2. Cake: Grease two 9 inch (23 cm) round cake pans and line bottoms with waxed paper.
  3. Break eggs into a large bowl; place over hot tap water for 5 minutes. Add vanilla.
  4. With electric mixer, beat eggs and vanilla on high speed until foamy.
  5. Add sugar gradually and beat until eggs are very light, about 3 minutes.
  6. In another bowl, combine flour and baking powder; stir into egg mixture in three additions. Divide batter between pans.
  7. Bake 20 to 25 minutes, or until cake springs back when touched in center. Cool on cake racks 5 minutes. Turn out of pans, peel off paper and cool completely.
  8. Filling: In a medium saucepan, combine sugar and cornstarch.
  9. Stir in water, cranberries and apples. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring. Cook until apples are tender and mixture is thick, 3 to 4 minutes.
  10. Remove from heat and cool.
  11. Slice each cake in 2 to make a total of 4 layers. Place one layer on a serving plate; top with 1/2 cup (125 mL) filling.
  12. Repeat with 2 more layers, placing the last layer on top of cake crust-side up. Spread remaining filling on top. Whip cream with sugar. Frost sides of cake with cream, and pipe a border on top.
  13. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
