2 c. dried apples
1 c. sugar
2/3 c. butter
2 tsp. baking powder
2 eggs
3 c. or more flour
1 c. raisins
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. baking soda
1 c. molasses
1 c. milk

Soak apples in water long enough to make them soft. Chop them to the size of raisins and boil for 15 minutes in the molasses. Dissolve soda in a little hot water and add to molasses mixture when cold. Sift dry ingredients together. Beat butter, sugar and eggs together until fluffy. Add molasses mixture, milk and dry ingredients. Stir in raisins. Bake at 350 degrees until done.
