Mrs. Z's Recipes

My hubby grew up eating apple sauce cake. In fact, it's still his favorite cake, aside from Chocolate cake. His mom made it for him all the time and still does on holidays when we go over to her house. He likes it so much I had to learn to make it! 

Alison, over at Prairie Story, has a very similar recipe. I adjusted it a little to make it like my hubby likes it. I love this cake now too, though I'm more of a walnut and cherry topping kind of girl, so I might just make little cup cakes, for myself, using her recipe!

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup melted butter
• 2 cups brown sugar
• 2 large brown eggs
• 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
• 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp sea salt
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
• 1/4 tsp ground allspice
• 1 1/2 cups apple sauce
• 1 bag semi sweet chocolate chips

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350° and grease a 13 x 9 dark baking pan. 
2. Combine and whisk all ingredients in a large bowl, adding chocolate chips last.
3. Pour mix into the pan and place in oven to cook for 30 minutes.
4. Once cooked, let the pan sit on the counter for 20 minutes.
5. To store, cover will foil and place in fridge. To eat, warm in microwave for 10-30 seconds.
