apple cake

I want to pass along a wonderful cake that I have made already several times this fall~it is a very moist (and rich) apple cake that melts in your mouth and is very delicious.

Here is the recipe:

Cake:

6 cups apples, peeled and cut into small pieces
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
2 t vanilla
3/4 cup oil
2 cups flour
1 1/2 t soda
1 t salt
2 t cinnamon

Frosting:
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup powdered sugar
milk

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9 x 13 baking pan. Cake: Combine apples and sugar; let stand 20-40 minutes. Add eggs, vanilla and oil to apple mixture and mix together. Combine flour, soda, salt and cinnamon and add, mixing well. Spread in greased baking pan. Bake for 45 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Frost while still hot.
Frosting: While cake is baking, prepare Frosting. Boil butter and brown sugar together until creamy. Mix in powdered sugar and enough milk until Frosting is runny. Pour over cake while it is still hot
