Preparation
Preheat oven to 350°.
Place the first 4 ingredients in a large bowl, and beat with a mixer
at medium speed until well blended (about 3 minutes). Add eggs, 1 at a
time, beating well after each addition.
Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife.
Combine flour and the next 5 ingredients (flour through nutmeg),
stirring with a whisk. Add flour mixture and buttermilk alternately to
sugar mixture, beginning and ending with flour mixture; beat well
after each addition. Stir in the apple and brandy, if desired. Spoon
mixture into an 8-inch square baking pan coated with cooking spray.
Bake at 350° for 30 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center
comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Remove
from pan; cool completely on wire rack. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
