Apple Pudding Cake With Cinnamon Butter Sauce



Ingredients:

Cake:

1 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 egg
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups chopped peeled or unpeeled cooking apples (2 medium)

Sauce:

1/3 cup butter or margarine
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup half-and-half
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions:

1 Heat oven to 350°F. Grease bottom and sides of 8-inch square pan with shortening.
2 In large bowl, mix brown sugar and softened butter with spoon until light and fluffy. Beat in egg. Stir in flour, baking soda, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, the nutmeg and salt. Stir in apples. Spread batter in pan.
3 Bake 25 to 35 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
4 Meanwhile, in 1-quart saucepan, heat sauce ingredients over medium heat, stirring frequently, until butter is melted and sauce is hot. Serve warm sauce over warm cake.

Tips:

* You can bake the cake and make the sauce a day ahead and store them separately (refrigerate sauce). Warm the sauce in a saucepan over low heat, and heat individual pieces of cake uncovered in the microwave on High for 25 to 35 seconds or until warm.
* Braeburn, Cortland, Granny Smith or Rome apples are all good choices for this pudding cake.
