Apple Spice Cake with Vanilla Butter Sauce

This recipe is an absolute favorite around my house!  My husband will ask for this for his birthday cake almost every year.

Apples Spice Cake

1/2 cup vegetable oil

2 cups sugar

2 eggs

2 cups flour

2 tsp. soda

2 tsp nutmeg

2 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp salt

4 cups peeled and grated apples (approximately 8 medium apples)

In a mixer combine oil, sugar and eggs.  In a separate bowl sift the flour, soda, nutmeg, cinnamon and salt together.  Then add to the oil and sugar mixture.  This will make a thick batter.  Then add the apples.  Bake in a 9x13 greased pan at 350 degrees for 45-60 minutes.  Remove from oven and cool.

Vanilla Butter Sauce

1/2 cup of butter

1/2 cup evaporated milk

1 cup sugar

1 tsp vanilla

Combine all of the above ingredients together in a sauce pan and heat over medium heat until boiling, stirring continually.  

Pour sauce onto individual pieces of cake and serve.
