Cream sugar and butter. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each
addition. Combine dry ingredients and add alternately to batter with
buttermilk and vanilla; mix. Divide batter into six equal portions. Pat
batter into six greased 9-inch pans. Bake in a 450 degree oven for 10-15
minutes. Cool.
FILLING: Cover apples with water and cook until tender; mash. Add the
remaining ingredients; mix. Spread each of the layers except the top one
with apple filling. Stack layers. Let cake stand for 12 hours or over night
before cutting. Serves 12-14.
NOTE: This is an adaptation of an old family recipe. My grandmother made
her cake using lard for the shortening in the cookie-like portion and used
her homemade Apple Butter for the filling.
