Directions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease a 9x12 baking dish (mine is 7x11... yours may bake faster!). Mix first 5 ingredients well in large bowl. Sift together dry ingredients in another bowl. Add to wet ingredients and beat for 2 minutes. Add chocolate chips if desired. Pour into prepared pan. Bake until firm and a knife inserted near center comes out clean, about 50 minutes. This cake cuts well while still warm. It makes a clean cut and holds together well for snacking. You can add a frosting if you like, or serve with whipped cream or cool whip.

Mini Apple Tarts

Instead of a whole pie, try making bite-size tarts. The diminutive desserts cook quicker and are automatically portion controlled. Plus, they're easier to make for a crowd, and there's no need for a fork and plate.
