Time 40m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 cup pecans, chopped finely
2 1/2 cups cooking apples, chopped medium coarse (such as Granny Smith or Northern Sprys)
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1 cup flour
3/4 cup butter
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
3/4 cup heavy cream

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large bowl, cream the butter.
Add the sugar and beat until fluffy.
Add egg and beat until blended, then mix in the baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
Add the flour and stir just until blended.
Stir in the apples and nuts.
Pour into an oiled 9 inch round cake pan (I use a glass pie plate) and bake for 30 minutes or until the top springs back when touched lightly in the center.
Prepare sauce.
In a saucepan, melt the butter, brown sugar, and salt.
Bring to a boil, stirring with a whisk, then remove from heat and whisk in the vanilla and the cream.
(The sauce can be made ahead of time and reheated over hot water.) Serve the cake warm with the hot caramel sauce and a dollop of whipped cream.
The cake gets better as it ages, keeps for a week in the refrigerator, and also freezes well.
It can be reheated in the microwave.

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9- x 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
2. In a large bowl, cream sugar and shortening with an electric beater on low speed. Beat in the eggs, one at a time. Add flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt; beat until well mixed. Add applesauce and vanilla; mix well then stir in the walnuts and pour batter into prepared baking dish.

4. For a fancier treat, drizzle with a glaze that's made by mixing 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar and 1 to 2 teaspoons water. I am going to take 8 oz reduced fat cream cheese and add 14 [or more] cinnamon applesauce. Mix together and cpread over the cake.
