Ingredients

3/4 cup corn oil
1/2 cup butter soften
2 1/4 cups sugar granulated
1/2 cup cocoa powder unsweetened, firmly pack
2 teaspoons cinnamon, ground
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg grated
1/2 teaspoon allspice ground
5 large eggs
2 1/2 cups cake flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
3 cups apples green, diced
1/2 cup currants or raisins
1 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup brandy

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Generously grease a 12-cup bundt pan.

In a large bowl, beat together oil, butter, and granulated sugar about 2 minutes.

With mixer on low, beat in cocoa, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice.

With mixer on medium, add eggs, one at a time, beat well after each addition.

Sift together flour, baking soda, and salt.

Add to chocolate mixture, beating only enough to combine.

Stir in apples and currants.

Turn batter into prepared pan and spread evenly.

Bake 55 to 60 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted in center comes out clean.

Let cool in pan 20 minutes, then unmold onto a rack to cool completely.

Meanwhile, prepare glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, remaining 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and brandy until smooth.

Drizzle over cool cake, letting some run down side.

Serve warm or at room temperature.
