List of Ingredients
Dough:
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups shortening
4 cups flour
4 egg yolks
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 cup cold water
Mix first four ingredients.
In another bowl, mix egg yolks, lemon juice and water. Add to the flour mixture. Work dough lightly, then cut in two pieces.
On a floured surface, roll 1 piece of dough, and place in a lightly greased jelly roll pan on the bottom and up the sides (dough will break apart as you do this; simply patch dough together in the pan as you go along). Set aside and make filling.
Filling:
12 large apples, peeled, cored and shred-ded (we used a combination of Granny Smith, Golden Delicious -- any cooking apples will do)
2 tablespoons cinnamon
4 tablespoons flour
1 to 2 cups sugar or for sugar-free 5 to 6 packets of sugar substitute (we used 1 cup granulated sugar)
Combine all filling ingredients -- spread evenly in prepared pan. Roll remaining dough, patching the dough together as it breaks apart.
Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour or until the edges are light golden brown. Make the glaze.
Glaze (optional):
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon milk
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Combine all ingredients, mix well. Pour over hot cake.
