Mom's Dutch Apple Cake

When I opened my Mother's binder last night to check the recipe it fell apart I had to find a rubber band and tie around it to hold them all together! The pages fell every where! I'll have to find a new one now. I'm a sentimental old fool. I hate to get rid of it just because it was Mom's!

ANYWAY...here's the recipe:

Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 1 cup vegetable oil
• 2 cups sugar
• 1 Tbsp. vanilla
• 2 cups flour
• 1/2 tsp. baking soda
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1 Tbsp. cinnamon
• 1 cup walnuts (chopped fine)
• 4 cups apples (diced or thinly sliced)

Directions

Beat together eggs and oil, add sugar, vanilla, flour, soda, salt and cinnamon. Mix until batter is stiff.

The best way to mix this batter is the old fashioned way---with your hands.

Bake in 13 x 9 inch greased pan at 350 degree F oven for 45-50 minutes until cake tests done.

Frost with Butter Cream Frosting.

Butter Cream Frosting

• 2 cups Powdered Sugar
• 1/4 cup Butter (softened)
• 2 tsp. Vanilla
• 3-4 tsp. Milk

Mix sugar and softened butter until smooth. Add vanilla. Blend well. Add milk until of spreading consistency. Spread on cake.
