I got this recipe from my Aunt Nellie. She was a great cook! I hope you all enjoy this recipe.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

A simple apple cake recipe that's jam-packed with apples and just the right amount of spice. The cake itself is tender and moist. When baked, a sugary crust forms on top. Not overly sweet, enjoy this apple cake for a light dessert or afternoon snack.
