Chipped Apple Cake with Cream Cheese Topping image

Mom got this recipe from my Aunt Waneta Lynch Harris around 1963. My brother, Bob, always wanted this cake as his birthday cake. Mom always served it without frosting, but my niece, Emilea, who is a pastry chef, recently added a cream cheese frosting. So I'm including a Cream Cheese Topping that can be added, if you wish. =^..^=
