3 Eggs
½ cup Shortening
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
½ teaspoon Nutmeg

1 teaspoon Vanilla flavoring in it

Directions:"She (Grandma Ellis) made it like biscuit dough and patted it out in the skillet until she covered the bottom of the pan with it. She had 4 or 5 layers. I don't remember which one. Put apples between each layer and on top of it.
These measures are not exact. You could bake it and see how it turned out. Maybe you could add a little or do whatever you have to do. Love, Maxine "
TIPS: I think Grandma Ellis used canned apples or sometimes dried apples. Mostly I (Faith's mom, remember it with apples that she had canned.)
This is the best apple stack cake ever. I think Faith needs to commit to taking this little bit of information provided by Aunt Maxine and her love for baking and, as Aunt Maxine stated in her letter, " do whatever you have to do" to make this the best apple stack cake anyone has ever tasted! |
