Original Recipe Yield 1 - 9 inch square cake
 

Ingredients

  • 3 eggs
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1 cup frozen apple juice concentrate, thawed
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 1/2 cups ground almonds
  • 2 Macintosh apples - peeled, cored and finely chopped
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened apple butter
  • 2 tablespoons frozen apple juice concentrate, thawed

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour one 9 inch square baking pan.

  4. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for about 40 minutes or until the cake tests done. Let cake cool on a rack for 15 minutes before turning out of pan. Cool completely before frosting.

  6. To Make Apple Butter Frosting: Beat the cream cheese until soft and fluffy. Gradually beat in the apple butter and remaining 2 tablespoons apple juice concentrate.
