- Remove about ¼ cup of flour mixture to a separate medium bowl.
- Fold the applesauce into the cream butter sugar mixture. These ingredients will not mix completely.
- Fold in half of the flour mixture to the bowl.

- Bake for 25-30 min. Cake is done when a toothpick comes out clean.
- I just came up with this one tonight. I made cupcakes. They turned our great, very tender and tasty. I will post the Maple Brown Sugar Frosting after I have tinkered with it a bit.
