Applesauce Spice cake with Peanut Butter Frosting image

This cake was always my birthday request. My Grandmother even mailed me one in college and it lasted about 5 minutes in the Student Center. I made it easier using a spice cake mix but it tastes just like Grandma & Dad used to make!!

I had high hopes for this cake, but I was disappointed. The cake was dry and the frosting was too sweet. I won't be making this recipe again.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but the frosting was delicious. I would probably reduce the amount of sugar in the cake next time.
