APPLE BUTTERSCOTCH CAKE
I was looking through the "The Best of Country Cooking 2007"and I came across this recipe.It was ssubmitted to the above cookbook by Nancy Zimmermean from Cape May Court House,New Jersey.I decided to try it,and it wasn' t too bad :).I have found out that the amount of vegetable oil that was listed in the ingredients made the cake just a little too oily for me.I would suggest cutting the oil to 1/4 cup.Since my SO doesn't care for pecans I left those out.And I also found out that 45 minutes is too long to bake, so 35 minutes might be better.So if you try this recipe,please consider the changes that I have made.Submitted to "ZAAR" on April 28,2008.
