BABY'S APPLESAUCE CAKE WITH PEANUT BUTTER FROSTING (SMASH CAKE)

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Spray your jumbo muffin tin or 4" cake tins with nonstick spray. In your mixer, combine the egg, coconut oil and maple syrup. Mix on medium speed for 30 seconds. Then add the applesauce. Next, with the mixer off, add all of the dry ingredients and spices. Turn the mixer on medium low and mix until the dry ingredients are fully incorporated. Pour the batter into your prepared tins. Bake for 20-24 minutes, or until golden brown and a test stick comes out clean. Let the cakes cool on a wire rack.
• In your clean mixer, whip the cold coconut cream on medium high until very smooth. Then add the peanut butter and whisk until incorporated. Make sure you scrape down the sides of the bowl so all of the peanut butter is mixed in. Frost your cooled cakes. Serve, enjoy!

APPLESAUCE CAKE WITH PENUCHE FROSTING

Steps:

• Make the cake:
• In a large bowl with an electric mixer cream the butter, add the sugars, a little at a time, and beat the mixture until it is light and fluffy. Beat in the applesauce and the egg. Into the butter mixture sift together the flour, the baking soda, the cinnamon, the nutmeg, and the cloves, stir the mixture until it is combined, and add the vanilla, the oats, and the coated raisins. Stir the batter until it is combined well, divide it between 2 well-buttered 8-inch round cake pans, and bake the cake layers in the middle of a preheated 350°F. oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean. Turn the layers out onto racks and let them cool completely.
• Make the frosting:
• In a heavy saucepan combine the brown sugar, the butter, the milk, and a pinch of salt, bring the mixture to a boil over moderate heat, stirring until the sugar is dissolved, and cook it, undisturbed, until it registers 234°F. on a candy thermometer. Let the mixture cool to room temperature and whisk it until it is thickened, lightened in color, and beginning to lose its sheen.
• Working quickly, before the frosting begins to harden and crystallize, frost the top of 1 of the cake layers, top it with the other layer, and frost the top and side of the cake. (If the frosting becomes too hard to spread, reheat it over low heat, stirring, until it is of spreading consistency and let it cool.)
• Make pink applesauce:
• In a large heavy saucepan combine the apples, 1/2 cup water, the lemon juice, and the sugar, bring the liquid to a boil, and simmer the mixture, stirring occasionally, for 25 minutes, or until the apples are very tender. Force the mixture through a food mill fitted with the fine disk into a bowl. Serve the applesauce warm or chilled. Makes about 4 cups.
