Instructions: (Annices change in ingredients)

I make a cake very similar to Allysons. I use 2 T applesauce instead of the oil, water instead of the milk, only 2/3 cup sugar in the cake part, and 2/3 cup brown sugar (and no white sugar) in the topping part. The cake
comes out rich tasting and delicious.

Mix well the first 7 ingredients and spread in a 9" square pan.

Mix and sprinkle on batter in pan.

Pour 1 1/2 cups boiling water on top.

Bake 35-40 minutes at 350F.
This will separate roughly into a layer of cake and a layer of pudding. The longer you bake it, the less pudding you get, and more of the cake part.

Here is one of my all time favorite dessert recipes, back to when my mom made it for us when I was a kid.

I was quite pleased when I realized how little fat was involved in the recipe. I have cut down the margarine in the recipe a bit, and, given that the texture of the cake is not as important as the sauce that goes with it, I would expect that you can substitute applesauce rather effectively.
