- I have enjoyed this newsgroup immensely. I've gotten so many good recipes
- from postings that I thought I'd post one of my favorites. This came from
- a newspaper many years ago, and I always get compliments when I make it.

- APPLE CAKE
-
- 2 eggs
- 2 c sugar
- 1/2 c oil (I use canola)
- 1 t vanilla
- 2 c flour (unbleached white)
- 1/2 t salt
- 1 t baking soda
- 2 t cinnamon
- 1/4 t nutmeg
- 5 med. apples, diced (I like Granny Smiths and they needn't be peeled)
- 1 c walnuts, chopped
-
-
- Beat eggs until light & fluffy. Gradually add in sugar, oil & vanilla.
- Sift together flour, salt, soda, cinnamon & nutmeg (I don't sift, just
- mix); add to first mixture. Stir in apples & walnuts. Place in greased
- 9x13" pan. Bake in 350 deg. oven for 45 min. or until center springs back
- when touched. Allow to cool in pan on a rack for 15 min; spread with
- Cream Cheese Frosting (recipe follows).
-
- CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
-
- 1 pkg (3 oz) cream cheese
- 3 T butter, softened
- 1/2 t vanilla
- 1 1/2 c powdered sugar
-
- Beat cream cheese and butter together. Add vanilla and beat. Gradually
- beat in powdered sugar until smooth.
-
- Note: Both cake and frosting freeze well.
