Recipe Introduction
My Mom baked tons of food for Christmas. She always baked four or five cakes. My sister had to have a coconut cake, my brother always wanted a carmel cake. My father wanted a chocolate cake and I wanted the Apple Sauce cake. While all of the cakes were out of this world, the Apple Sauce cake reminded me of the plum pudding in the story, "The Christmas Carol". My mom worried that it would be to dry and something go wrong with it. We all sampled it on Christmas day and as always the cake received rave reviews. Perhaps on your next Christmas holiday you can share this recipe with those you love.
