My grandmother Anina always made this cake for holidays - it was probably created to make use of what was on hand in hard times. I'm posting it here for safe-keeping.

- Spread over this one can of the applesauce, dot with 1/3 of the remaining butter and sprinkle half the remaining sugar and cinnamon.
- Repeat, then finish with the last third of the crumbs. Dot with last of the butter.
