An attraction presentation is to slice the chilled applesauce cake thinly,
spread with apple butter, and make little sandwiches.

Cake ~ Sift together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg,
and salt, and set aside.

Cream the butter until soft and fluffy and add the sugar gradually, beating
until the mixture is light. Alternately add the dry ingredients and the
warm applesauce, blending well after each addition. Mix in the raisins and
nuts.

Pour into 3 small (6 x 3 1/2") loaf pans and bake in a preheated 350 F oven
for 45 to 50 minutes or until done. Cool in the pans for 15 minutes.
Remove, wrap, and chill before slicing. Serve with apple butter.

Apple Butter ~ Combine the applesauce, sugar, cinnamon,
allspice, ginger, and cloves in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and simmer for
1 hour, stirring occasionally. Cool and spread on slices of Applesauce
Cake.
