Wonderful with a hot cup of coffee or tea. Just a touch of spice and the lemon is a nice touch to set off the applesauce. Hope you enjoy. Top with whipped cream or lemon sauce.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very moist and flavorful. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time. Otherwise, it's a great recipe!
