Seminary Cake

• 2 cups sugar
• 1/2 cup applesauce (or 1 cup shortening)
  
• 3 eggs
• 4 Tbs vanilla
  
• 2 tsp almond extract
  
• 1 tsp salt
• 4 tsp baking powder
• 3 1/2 cups flour
• 1 can evaporated milk*
  
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup cinnamon
  

*You can make evaporated milk by combining 3/4 cups hot water with 1/2 cup of regular powdered milk. You'll need to double this recipe for the cake.

Cream applesauce/shortening and 2 cups sugar, add eggs and then vanilla and almond extract. Then add dry ingredients and milk alternately. Butter and sugar the Bundt pan. Put in 1/3 of batter, then sprinkle with 1/2 cup cinnamon and 1/2 cup sugar mixture, then another 1/3 of batter. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.

I often make it with only 1/2 can of milk. This makes the cake a little heaver and more chewy.
