On a website of Irish recipes, I found a great dessert that's very quick to put together and it tastes GREAT. It's called Kerry Apple Cake. Here are the ingredients and directions:
Soften 6 oz. of butter (be sure and use butter--it's worth it) and cream this with 1 c. sugar (the finer the sugar the better--IGA now carries super fine under their label). Add to this 2 eggs, and 1 c. self-rising flour. Once this reaches batter stage, fold in 2 peeled, cored, and chopped apples (the finer, the better) and 1t. of lemon peel. Put this into a pan that is buttered and lined with parchment paper (you can find this about anywhere anymore). Once the batter in in the pan, sprinkle about 2T.of brown sugar on the top, along with 1t. sugar, a bit of cinnamon, and a bit of nutmeg. Put this into a 350 degree oven for about an hour, or until a toothpick comes out clean. This is a fantastically moist cake.
The recipe says that the cake doesn't keep well, but no worry since it's eaten rather quickly...agreed!
