I remember eating a cake like that when I was young. I was at a few church dinners and I loved it!! It was so moist and delicious and had a homemade cream cheese icing. I've searched many times for hat I thought was the recipe and I've made several cakes but they're not turning out moist like I remember and not exactly the same taste, so I'll keep trying until I find that recipe!! 😂❤️

Little rainy and chilly today in Tennessee so a perfect day to warm up the house with a little baking. A really great cake to have around for my 88 year old Dad to snack on. Not too sweet either. (I skipped the powdered sugar for topping) It's going to be perfect to have with my morning coffee.

My mother used to make an applesauce cake that she put nuts, raisins and chopped dates in. I used to LOVE eating the batter of that cake. I loved eating the cake, too, but I'm a little strange like that. I enjoy eating batter and dough almost more than the finished product. And, what a shock!!!! At 59, I've never had a case of salmonella. Anyway, looks like another great recipe I need to try.
@brendafoster47122 жыл бұрын
I love choc. chip cookie batter...I keep it in the fridge when I'm baking the cookies and darned if I don't find myself grabbing a spoonful of waiting dough a "few" times. So, I don't think that's strange at all, Doris. We can all blame our mothers (I'm kidding, of course) because they started the whole thing by always giving us the beaters to lick when we were kids! My mother baked everyday because my dad loved dessert after dinner with a cup of coffee. She taught all of us (5 kids) to cook and bake. As we got older, she handed off the dessert making for daddy to us girls for part of the week on a rotation basis! My granny was very funny about us eating raw dough because of the egg thing, too, so that wasn't something we got to do very often at her house. She also believed that you could not have little "crispy" edges around your fried eggs because if you burned the whites of the egg, it became toxic and could make you very sick. It's got to be a generational thing...she was born in 1908 and was half Native American. p.s. I love chopped dates in breads and cookies, etc., etc. Buon Appetit!

I used.to lick the spoon as a kid too. No more. I did get salmonella once, most likely from a salad bar that had been contaminated back in the kitchen when they used the wrong cutting board for the veggies... I have never been so sick before or since. It was really, really bad. You dont want to.risk it,.believe me.

@donnaleveron65112 жыл бұрын
I've done the same thing for most of my life, I'm 70, and still lick the spoon, beaters, or bowl. I remember when people used to drink or eat raw eggs in a kind of forerunner smoothie. Never heard of anyone getting sick back then.

Now I've made this cake the old-fashioned way like you did and I also used a cake mix... you want to use a spice cake mix and instead of adding the water you add that much applesauce, pour that into the mix add raisins or chopped walnuts, whatever you want to add to it... then pour into your bunt cake pan for your 13 by 9 inch pan whatever you choose and bake it just like it says on the package and it comes out great... just a little easier to do if you don't have the time to do it this way...
