I’ve had my share of candy this week, so this lightly sweet cake is the perfect treat! It has so much fruit it’s almost a salad…OK not really but, this is the most fruit I’ve ever put in a cake this size. It may seem like a mistake but there are 3 cups of chopped apples packed into this bake. There is just enough cake to hold it together. I love the fresh apple flavor and how easy this bake is to make. Apple people this one is for you!

In a large bowl beat the butter and sugar until well blended. Beat in the extracts, chai tea, and applesauce. Add the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
