Mrs. G. P. Livingston’s title for this cake was “Different Applesauce Cake”. I don’t know what made it different. There was one other applesauce cake in Home Cooking Secrets of Charlotte. That one had no applesauce in it—it used dried apples.
Different or not, however, this is a very good rich apple spice cake. Adding a caramel frosting turns it into a perfect Autumn treat.
Go, eat your bread with joy and drink your wine with a merry heart, because it is now that God favors your works. — King Solomon (Ecclesiastes)
