They were devoured! Even by Shula - who doesn't especially like cake but LOVED the frosting.
1 1/2 c. oil
2 c.white sugar
3 eggs
3 c. peeled, chopped apple (doesn't need to be too fine - some visible apple chunks are nice)
3 c. flour
l t. baking soda
1 t. salt
2 t. vanilla
1 c. chopped nuts (also doesn't need to be too fine)
Cream oil, sugar, and eggs
Add flour, salt, and baking soda
Beat well and add remaining ingredients - this is a very heavy batter.
Bake at 350 for one hour [in greased pan like a bundt or tube] - I used Convection with a large pan and small pan, one for Nomi et al, and one for Shula, for a birthday/Thanksgiving cake. 30 minutes for a small cake, more like 45 for a bigger.
Glaze
3/4 stick butter or margarine
1 c light brown sugar firmly packed
1/3 c milk
Boil 10-15 minutes (until thick). When it's really thick it hardens into caramel on the cake.
Drizzle on cake while in pan and still warm & let cool or
Drizzle on cooled cake
