C&H Cocoa Apple Cake

[Paula A]

i am writing it the way it was on the package.

3 eggs
2 cups sugar
2 sticks margarine
1/2 cup water
Cream all together.
Sift together:
2 1/2 cups flour
2 Tblsp. Cocoa ( like Hershey's)
1 t. Baking soda
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. allspice
After sifting, add to the creamed mixture.

Then fold in:
1 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup chocolate chips
2 cups grated apples
1 T. Vanilla

Mix all.
Put the batter in a Greased and Floured Tube pan.
Bake at 325*F. For 60 minutes.
Serves 12. Loaf pans work, too, but I have always baked in a tube pan.

That's barely any Cocoa...do you even taste choc or is it just kind of a hint of it in the background?

[Pat B]

Somehow chocolate and apples just don't work for me.

[Paula A]

Probably more like a hint, but the chocolate chips are noticeable.
Grating the apples makes for a really moist cake. I am making it this weekend and will try to take notes!

I have been making mental tweeks already. Rather odd instructions. Think I would double the cocoa and use pecans and no chocolate chips.
