Oatmeal Cake with Broiled Frosting image

After enjoying this recipe for more than 30 years, I knew it was time to revise it. I was happy to discover that replacing the oil with applesauce and using fat-free half-and-half didn't alter the flavor of my favorite snack. -Pat Van Cleve of Winston-Salem, North Carolina
