Cocoa Apple Cake
- 3 eggs
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup (2 sticks) butter
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tbs cocoa
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp allspice
- 1 cup finely chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans work well)
- 2/3 cup chocolate chips
- 2 apples such as Golden Delicious, cored and grated or very finely chopped
- 1 tbs vanilla
- Beat together sugar, margarine, eggs, and water until fluffy. Sift together flour, cocoa, soda, cinnamon, and allspice. Add to creamed mixture and mix well. Fold in nuts, chocolate bits, apples, and vanilla until evenly distributed. Spoon into greased and floured 10-inch loose bottom tube pan. Bake in 325 degree oven 60-70 minutes (I find it usually takes longer) or until cake tests done. Makes a tender moist cake.
