Zubereitung von Applesauce Cake With Caramel Frosting
- **Cake:**
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 13x9x2 inch baking pan.
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 2 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add 4 large eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup applesauce and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients and the applesauce mixture to the creamed butter and sugar mixture, alternating between the two and beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Stir in 1 cup raisins and 1 cup chopped pecans.
- Pour batter into the prepared baking pan.
- Bake for 65-70 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before frosting.
- **Frosting:**
- While the cake is baking, prepare the frosting: In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup packed light brown sugar, 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, and 1/4 teaspoon sea salt.
- Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
- Reduce heat to low and add 1/2 cup heavy cream. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened slightly.
- Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature. (This helps prevent the powdered sugar from clumping).
- Once cooled, gradually add 2 cups powdered sugar, beating with a wooden spoon or electric mixer until smooth and spreadable. Add more powdered sugar if needed to reach desired consistency.
- Frost the cooled cake.
