I first found this on International Recipes Online, and it sparked my interest because it's supposedly from New York (New York does have great apples). It's a very simple cake, and doesn't have any cinnamon in it, so it's become my daughter Nomi's favorite. Ingredients:
1 cup oil |
1/4 cup half-and-half or 1/4 cup milk |
2 cups sugar |
4 eggs |
3 cups flour |

1/4 teaspoon salt |
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract or 2 teaspoons almond extract (etc.) |
3 small apples, peeled and coarse chopped |
1/4 cup dark raisin |
1/4 cup chocolate chips |
1/3 cup chopped walnuts or 1/3 cup almonds or 1/3 cup pecans |
1/4 cup flaked coconut |
1/4 cup drained and chopped maraschino cherry |
powdered sugar, mixed with |
cocoa, as garnish |
