1-1/3 cups packed brown sugar
1/2 cup shortening
1 egg
2 cups flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. ground cloves
1/4 cup apple juice (or cider)
1-1/2 cups chopped, unpeeled apple (1 large)
1 cup chopped nuts
1 cup raisins
Frosting:
1-1/2 cups sifted powdered sugar
1 T. milk
1 T. butter or margarine, softened

Instructions:
In a large bowl, cream the brown sugar and shortening. Beat in the egg until
fluffy.
In another bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, the 1/4 tsp. salt and the
cloves. Beat into the creamed mixture on low speed. Beat in the apple
juice. By hand, stir in apple, nuts and raisins.
Bake in a greased 9 x 13 cake pan at 350 degrees until a toothpick comes clean-approximately 25-30 minutes.

vanilla and the dash of salt. Stir until smooth. Spread on the warm cake.
