3 c. unsifted flour
2 c. sugar
1 c. real mayonnaise
1/3 c. milk
2 eggs
2 tsp. baking soda
1 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. ground cloves
3 c. chopped apples
1 c. raisins
1/2 c. chopped nuts

Grease and flour two 9 inch baking pans. In large mixer bowl, mix on low speed the first 10 ingredients for 2 minutes, scraping bowl frequently. (Batter will be very thick.) With spoon, stir in apples, raisins and nuts.

Spoon batter into pans. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. Cool in pans for 10 minutes. Remove and cool. Fill and frost with whipped cream icing.

WHIPPED CREAM ICING:

Soften 1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin in 4 teaspoons cold water for 5 minutes. Place over hot water to dissolve. Beat 1/2 pint heavy whipping cream until it begins to thicken. Pour gelatin mixture into cream in a very thin stream while blending. Add confectioners' sugar to sweeten, and beat until cream is stiff enough to retain swirls. Do not overbeat. This can be done up to 24 hours ahead.
