Katie's Corner

Putting the Apple Cake Together:

½ cup shortening   

2 cups flour

2 cups sugar   

2 tsp. soda

2 eggs  

2 tsps. cinnamon

½ tsp. salt  

3 cups apples (granny smith) shredded

Cream together shortening and sugar. Beat in eggs one at a time. Add remaining ingredients.

Bake in 9x13 cake pan at350 degrees for 30-40 minutes.  With a knife make small cuts over the whole surface of the cake so that when you pour the topping over the top it seeps through the cake.

Boil: 

1 cup sugar

½ cup butter

1/3 cup milk

2 tsp. vanilla

Pour over hot cake and serve with whipped cream or ice cream.  

This cake does not last long.  It is so moist and delicious.  Watch out,  this cake  is  easy to eat the whole pan yourself!
