This cake is good, I mean REALLY GOOD. If you use real vanilla extract the flavor is amazing.
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups peeled and chopped apples (, Granny Smith or Gala)
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup raisins, optional
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
Vanilla Butter Sauce:
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup whipping cream
1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 350°F degrees.
Beat butter and brown sugar for 5 minutes in a mixer bowl.
Beat in eggs and vanilla just until blended. Set aside.
Mix flour, pumpkin pie spice, allspice and salt. Gradually add to sugar mixture; beating until well blended. Stir in apples, nuts, and raisins, if desired.
Pour into one greased 9-inch baking pan; bake 35-40 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool on wire rack 10 minutes.
Serve warm with Vanilla Butter Sauce:
Combine butter and whipping cream with brown sugar. Bring to boil over medium heat. Reduce heat; simmer 10 minutes or until slightly thickened. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla.
Serve warm.
Warm the cake, in the oven, and the sauce, on top of the stove, before serving.
