“This wonderful recipe is from the Bring ‘Em On Home Cookbook, it was given to us by Londa Pogue. It is the yummiest apple cake ever and one of my very favorite cakes to make as everyone loves it! The Icing will taste exactly what you remember a good old fashioned caramel apple on a stick should taste like. So Good!! (Cowboy Approved)
CAKE:
2 eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
1 3/4 cups sugar
2 1/4 cups self rising flour
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 cups chopped apples, peeled
1 cup chopped pecans
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Grease a 13 x 9 pan. In large bowl beat eggs, then add oil and sugar, stir until well blended. Stir in remaining ingredients and blend thoroughly. Pour batter into pan. Bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes until cake begins to pull away from the sides of pan. Cool.
CARAMEL ICING:
1/3 cup butter
2/3 cup dark brown sugar, firmly packed
1/3 cup milk
3 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
Pecan halves, optional
Melt butter in saucepan over medium low heat. Stir in brown sugar, cook and stir for 2 minutes. Add milk and continue cooking until mixture boils, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and gradually stir in powdered sugar. Add vanilla and blend well. Spread over cooled cake. If icing gets to thick, add a little milk and blend well. Garnish with pecan halves if desired.
