Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 325. Butter a 9 1/2-inch Bundt pan. Coat with 1/4 cup superfine sugar; tap out excess sugar, and set mold aside.
  2. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and remaining 2 cups superfine sugar on medium speed, scraping down sides as needed, until mixture is light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add eggs, and beat 2-3 minutes more. Fold in applesauce (if you use homemade, make sure to let it cool down first!), being careful not to over mix.
  3. Into a large bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt. Fold mixture into applesauce mixture. Add chocolate pieces, Calvados and vanilla; mix until just combined. Pour batter into prepared pan; smooth top with a rubber spatula.
  4. Bake until cake pulls away from sides of pan and is springy to the touch, and a cake tester inserted in center comes out clean, about 1 1/2 hours. Transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly before inverting cake onto rack. Re invert; let cool completely.
  5. Sift confectioners’ sugar over cake. Pour cider glaze over top of cake, allowing it to drip down sides.
  6. **Cider Glaze**
  7. 2 cups apple cider, plus more as needed
  8. 4 cups confectioners’ sugar, sifted
  9. 2 lemons
  10. Combine cider and 1 cup sugar in a small saucepan; bring to a boil over medium heat. Skim surface, removing any cider sediment that rises to top. Reduce heat; simmer until liquid begins to thicken into a glaze, about 30 minutes.
  11. Remove cider glaze from heat; let stand until cool enough to touch.
  12. Return to low heat and allow to reduce until 3/4 cup. Whisk remaining 3 cups confectioners’ sugar into glaze. Remove from heat. If glaze is too thin, let it cool slightly. If it is too thick, add a little more cider. Use immediately.
