Applesauce Cake in a Jar

Cream 2/3 cup shortening with 2/3 cup sugar.

Beat in 4 eggs, 2 cups applesauce, 2/3 cup water.

Sift together:

• 3 1/3 cups flour
• 1/2 tsp. baking powder
• 2 tsp. soda
• 1 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1 1/2 tsp. apple pie spice

Directions:

Blend dry ingredients into applesauce mixture. Pour into six well greased pint jars, filling 2/3 full. Bake at 325 degrees for 45 minutes. Remove jars from oven. Put lid on jar and seal tight. Jars will seal as cake cools. Use wide mouth jars. Slice and serve with cool Whip.
