5 med. apples, cored, unpeeled, cubed
2 eggs
2 c. sugar
2 c. flour
2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 c. oil
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1 c. nuts, chopped
1 c. raisins (optional)

Break eggs over apples. Add sugar, oil, cinnamon and nutmeg. Mix with fork. Stir in flour, soda and salt. Pour mixture into well greased 13 x 9 x 2 inch pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Check for doneness with toothpick.

FROSTING:

1/4 c. butter (1/2 cube)
1/2 box powdered sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 (4 oz.) cream cheese

Beat until smooth with mixer. Frosting will be kind of melted when spread on warm cake, but will set when cooled. (The original recipe calls for a double batch of frosting.)
