PAULA DEEN'S APPLESAUCE CAKE



Paula Deen's Applesauce Cake image

I needed to use up some applesauce so I tried this recipe from Christmas with Paula Deen. I did sift my ingredients, but I didn't grate my own fresh nutmeg (there's a kitchen gadget to put on my list). I used real butter instead of shortening. The house smells delicious, and this is great with vanilla ice cream!

PAULA DEEN'S FRUIT COCKTAIL CAKE

This was adapted from this summer's edition of Cooking With Paula Deen, in the section called From My Friends. I decreased her quantity of oil in the cake and used less butter in the frosting; it was wonderful! Moist, sweet, and easy. The frosting recipe is at the bottom.
