1 ½ cups white sugar
½ cup shortening
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon nutmeg
¼ teaspoon salt
3 cups apples - peeled, cored and chopped
½ cup chopped walnuts
3 tablespoons milk
2 tablespoons margarine
1 ½ cups brown sugar, packed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish.
  • To make the cake, cream the sugar and shortening together in a mixing bowl. Beat in the eggs and vanilla. Sift the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together in a second bowl. Gradually stir the flour mixture into the egg mixture. Fold in the apples and walnuts until evenly blended. Spoon the batter into the prepared baking dish.
