Original Recipe Yield 1 - 9 x 13 inch pan

Ingredients

1/2 cup butter
1 1/4 cups white sugar
1/2 cup milk
1 1/2 cups applesauce
2 tablespoons dark rum
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup raisins
1 cup chopped pecans
1/4 cup dark rum

Directions

In a bowl, cream the butter or margarine with the sugar. Beat in the milk, applesauce, and 2 tablespoons of rum.
