Applesauce Cake

by Lela May Smith McCulley

When going through my mother's recipes, I found this recipe written in my grandmother's own handwriting. There were no baking instructions. I tried the recipe, and it was good, but very spicy. My mother's version of it is here--Dorothea Malloy

Ingredients:
1 cup butter
2 cups sugar
2 cups raisins
2 cups nuts (pecans)
2 cups unsweetened applesauce
4 cups flour
2 grated nutmegs
1 tsp salt
1 tsp cloves
2 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp dissolved soda
