We had so many requests for the recipe here it is:

2 eggs
4 large unpeeled grated apples
2 cups flour

2 t. cinnamon
1 t. nutmeg
1/2 t. salt
1/2 cup chopped pecans
Cream Butter, gradually add sugar, eggs, apples then dry ingredients.  Grease a 9"X13" cake pan, and pour batter in.  Bake at 350* for 45 min. (toothpick inserted should come out dry)
Hot Butter Sauce (to pour over each individual piece of cake)
