How to Make Apple Pie Chocolate Brownie Cake
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch square baking pan.
- Prepare apple topping: In a medium bowl, gently combine 1 (21 ounce) can apple pie filling, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Add 1 cup water, ½ cup vegetable shortening, 1 large egg, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the dry ingredients.
- Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and well-blended.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Carefully spoon the apple topping evenly over the chocolate batter, leaving about ½ inch from the edges. Do not stir.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
- Let the cake cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares.
- Serve warm, topped with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream (optional).
