INSTRUCTIONS
This recipe is my Mammaw's as described by my cousin Ethel Tackett to the Alleghany Freewill Baptist Auxiliary in Alleghany, Kentucky. It is a little different than I originally remembered but as I read the recipe the flavors all came back to me. Hope you enjoy! Cream together sugar, molasses and Crisco. Add Eggs and mix well. Add bittermilk and mix. Add soda and ginger to flour; by hand, blend flour into creamed mixture. Pour 1/2 cup of mixture into greased pans. Bake at 400 until until done. Makes 6 - 8 layers, if using 8-inch pans. Cook apples, sugar and spices together. Stack cake together using apples between each layer. NOTE: I remember Mammaw using dried apples rather than fresh. Obviously my cousin has updated this a touch. Posted to EAT-L Digest by "June A. Halapir" <[email protected]> on Feb 9, 1998
