Okay I am loving the sound of this cake.  Haven't made it but it sure sounds good!!

Make sure that you chop the apples for this cake finely so they evenly add moisture to the batter. If your family doesn't like nuts, or is allergic, just leave them out; the cake will still be wonderful.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1-3/4 cups flour
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1-1/2 tsp. cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp. baking soda
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 3/4 cup butter, softened
  • 3 eggs
  • 1-1/2 cups peeled, finely chopped apples (2-3 apples)
  • 1 cup chopped pecans

PREPARATION:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease bottom only of 13x9" pan and set aside. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except apples and pecans. Beat on medium speed until batter is smooth, 2-3 minutes.
Stir in apples and pecans by hand. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean; or until cake springs back when lightly touched with fingertip. Cool completely on wire rack....
