How To Make tailgate apple cake

  • Step 1
    Preheat over to 325 degrees. Grease a 9" x 13" glass baking dish or pan. Prepare apples and set aside.
  • Step 2
    Blend the oil, sugar, eggs and vanilla extract; add the flour, salt, baking soda and cinnamon. Mix well; stir in the apples and nuts. Pour into prepared pan and bake for 45- 55 minutes - until done.
  • Step 3
    Topping: Combine brown sugar, butter and milk in a small saucepan; bring to a boil and pour immediately over the baked hot cake. The icing will partially be absorbed into the cake leaving a caramel topping. Trim with reserved nuts. Do not cut for at least 1 hour. Yields 20 squares. Note: If canned apples are used, use 1 1/2 cans of unsweetened pie apples. Drain apples and pat with paper towels.
