Applesauce Cake Blend together: 1-3/4 cups flour 1 cup raisins, currents, nuts or dates (I use a combination of half raisins, half nuts, or one cup dates omitting nuts). 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves (be careful of the cloves as the flavor is strong) Cream together: 1/2 cup butter 1 cup granulated or brown sugar (firmly pack brown sugar) Beat in 1 egg. Combine dry ingredients with the butter and sugar mixture; beat until smooth. Add 1 cup thick applesauce. Bake at 350 in a greased tube pan 50-60 minutes. If you use an 8 inch square pan, the time may vary. Cake is done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. You can frost this cake if you wish; I usually don't. It's good plain. _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
