Apples from the Orchard Cake


We bought 2 bushels of apples last year so I had to dig for lots of apple recipes. This is one that could become a favorite!
INGREDIENTS:
2 cups flour (I used fresh wheat)
1 3/4 cups sugar
3 eggs, beaten
1 cup of oil or butter (if you are going lowfat, you can use applesauce here but its not as rich;)
4-5 small apples, cubed
1 cup pecans
1 teaspoon of vanilla
1 teaspoon cinnamon
*******
Grease pan (may use 9x13 or even a Bundt). Preheat oven to 350.
Mix eggs and oil, add other ingredients.
Bake 1 hour. Let cool. (Remove from pan if using Bundt.)
ICING:
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup evaporated milk
1/2 cup margarine
1 teaspoon vanilla
******
Mix all ingredients together. Cook over medium heat, bringing to a boil. Cook 2 to 3 minutes after boil is reached. Pour over cake. (Make sure you use a big enough plate if using Bundt!)
