    My Mom, God rest her sweet soul, made an applesauce cake with raisins. Your cake looks really moist and delicious.

      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.

    I've always hated 🍎 apple sauce up until NOW. The food pantry I go to always gives me lots cuz most people don't want it so they ask if I want the leftover applesauce cans. After making your MOST EXCELLENT SUPER FANTASTIQUE! cake I will never hate applesauce again thanks to you sweetie love ya God bless you.

    My Grandma, who was the best cook I've ever known, used to make an apple cake, and i have been wishing that i had asked her for her recipe (s) for my whole, (long) adult life!!! I wonder if this might be the recipe that she used. One can only hope. I think hers actually had chunks of apples in it though....hmmmm.
    Too bad life doesn't come with optional do -overs!!!
    Well, im sure it will be good, no matter what.
    Thanks Catherine for another sweet recipe!!!
    Have a beautiful day!!!

    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.

    • @brendafoster4712
      @brendafoster4712 2 года назад +7

      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!

    • @christinebutler7630
      @christinebutler7630 2 года назад +2

      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.

    • @brendafoster4712
      @brendafoster4712 2 года назад +3

      Oh, man, hope you're feeling much improved. I had Campylobachter (sp?) once, which is one layer down from Salmonella and I know what you're talking about...got mine from cheese nachos at a major league ballgame and only took about 4-5 hours to hit me real bad...my hubby and I were at a piano recital that same night when it hit, oh, boy...I missed 3 weeks of work and lost over 20 lbs...I was very very sick.

    • @donnaleveron6511
      @donnaleveron6511 2 года назад +3

      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.

    My Mom made applesauce cake when I was a kid. In her recipe it called for lard and if you tried to use something else instead, the cake wouldn’t rise. It was the only cake I’d eat as a child. I loved it since she didn’t put nuts in it.

    • @FVWhimsy2010
      @FVWhimsy2010 Год назад

      I agree...I use diced apples instead of the nuts. My sister uses raisins...so to each their own.

    I am so grateful for your simple, yet thorough, presentation of ingredients as you prepare this cake. You do not divert from the recipe from start to finish, and then show the finished product with great satisfaction. That's the way I like to learn about a recipe. Many thanks. I shall try this one soon.

    I make my own apple butter so I used it then added a bit more spice as well. I use wild flower honey as a sweetner in everything now that I have cancer. I also added 1 cup of Golden flax seed for texture. It looks and smells fantastic right out of the oven!

    I made this cake, similar to the one my mom made at the Forest History Center for the 1900's lumberjacks as a history demonstration cooked in an antique wood cookstove inside the log cabin. Mom is gone now but I never got the recipie, and you made it for me. It was very delicious and moist; thanks for bringing back that taste of history for me.

    Delicious and definetly making it. I had this many decades ago but no recipe until now. Thank you so much. My only omission are the nuts but that's just me.
