- Joan E. Bergner, Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, sent this recipe for apple cake as
- She wrote: "Enclosed is an old family recipe for Apple Slab Cake of my grandmother's, given to me by my aunt. Dorothy Mankiewicz said her mother's cake was filled with applesauce and which might have been so, but the apples in my recipe cook down to an applesauce consistency, so I think this one is comparable to hers.
- "This is a large cake and takes some time to prepare, but well worth the time and effort. It is enjoyed in our family by three generations."
- Although this dessert is called a cake, the consistency is more similar to which of a pie.
