This is a dense and moist apple cake, almost like a carrot cake made with apples, which could be served as dessert, brunch, or morning coffee treat. Ingredients:
3 1/2 cups apples - peeled, cored, and coarsely chopped |
2 cups white sugar |
1/2 cup water |
2 eggs, lightly beaten |
1 cup margarine, melted |
3 cups all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 cup raisins |
1 cup chopped walnuts |
2 cups confectioners' sugar |
3 tablespoons hot water |
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, mix the apples and sugar. Let stand about 30 minutes.
2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 10x15 inch baking pans.
3. Stir the water into the bowl with apples. Blend eggs and margarine in a small bowl, and mix with the apples. Mix in the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Stir in the raisins and walnuts. Transfer to the prepared pans.
4. Bake 1 hour in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool slightly before turning out of pans.
5. In a medium bowl, blend confectioners' sugar, hot water, and vanilla extract. Drizzle over the cakes while still warm.
