Apple Dapple Cake

I have this cookbook - Potluck Favorites - that has recipes that can be made for big or small groups. Just follow the ingredient measurements for the size of cake you want to make.

20 Servings -------Ingredients --------9 servings
3 Cups -----------All-Purpose Flour-------- 2 Cups
2 Cups -----------Granulated sugar ------1 1/3 Cups
1 tsp ---------------Baking Soda -----------3/4 tsp
1/2 tsp -----------------Salt ---------------1/4 tsp
3 -------------------Beaten Eggs --------------2
1 Cup ---------------Cooking Oil -----------2/3 Cup
1/2 Cup -------------Apple juice -----------1/3 Cup
2 tsp ------------------Vanilla -------------1 1/2 tsp
3 Cups ----Finely Chopped Cooking Apple ---2 Cups
1 Cup -------Chopped Walnuts or Pecans ---2/3 Cup
1 Cup -----------Packed Brown Sugar ------2/3 Cup
1/4 Cup ---------------Butter --------------3 TBSP
1/3 Cup ----------Whipping Cream --------1/4 Cup

Grease and flour a 10-inch springform pan, or grease a 13x9x2 inch pan for 20 servings, or a 9x9x2 inch pan for 9 servings. In a very large mixing bowl combine flour, granulated sugar, baking soda, and salt; make a well in center and set aside. In a medium bowl combine eggs, oil apple juice, and vanilla; stir in apples and nuts. Add egg mixture to flour mixture, stirring just until moistened. (I mixed the wet ingredients in my mixer, and then added the dry ingredients and mixed just until moist - I'm all about not dirtying more bowls than needed. I also added some nutmeg and cinnamon, about 1 tsp each or so.)

Spread batter into prepared pan. Bake at 350 for 65 minutes (springform pan), 45-50 minutes (13x9 pan), or 40 minutes (9x9 pan) or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack.

For sauce, in a small saucepan combine brown sugar, butter, and cream. Cook and stir over medium heat just until bubbly and all of the sugar is dissolved. Cool slightly. Drizzle warm sauce over cake.
