Funny the Things You Miss

Mom used to make these every year. One or two to have at home and a whole bunch to take to friends. I used to think they were pretty boring, but now I would give anything to have one of Mom's Applesauce Raisin cakes.

It seems like it would be a 'no brainer to make them myself, but it just isn't the same.

1 spice cake mix, replace the oil with applesauce, add eggs and water according to package directions.

Divide the batter between two greased and floured loaf pans, bake at 350 for 30-40 minutes or until a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean.

Dust cooled cakes with powdered sugar.

I can do all that. Definitely a no brainer, but they still didn't come from Mom's kitchen.
