• 3 eggs
• 1 1/2 cups salad oil
• 2 cups sugar
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon soda
• 2 teaspoons vanilla
• 3 cups chopped apples
• 1 1/2 cups chopped pecans

1. Mix eggs, oil and sugar; blend well.
2. Combine flour, salt, and soda.
3. Add vanilla, apples, and nuts.
4. Pour into greased 8 or 9 inch tube pan or an oblong pan works well, too.
5. Bake 1 hour at 350 degrees.
6. While cake is still in pan and hot, pour the hot topping over it. (note, I take a fork and punch a few holes in the top for the topping to run down into the cake.)
7. When completely cool , remove cake from pan.

Topping

• 1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
• 1/4 cup milk
• 1/2 cup margarine or butter

1. Combine all ingredients and cook for 2 and 1/2 minutes.
2. Pour immediately over cake in pan.
