I got this from another site, where it was credited to Meal Master. It's not a fancy dessert-for-dinner cake, but more like a snack cake or coffee cake. It's very moist and buttery-sugary.

Tips:
- Use ripe apples for the applesauce. This will give the cake a more intense apple flavor. You can use any type of apples you like, but some good choices include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Pink Lady.
- Be sure to drain the applesauce well before adding it to the cake batter. Otherwise, the cake will be too wet and dense.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the toothpick comes out with batter or crumbs attached, the cake needs to bake longer.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.
- If you don't have time to make your own applesauce, you can use store-bought applesauce. Just be sure to choose a brand that is unsweetened.
- This cake can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the cake for up to 2 months.
