Apple Cake

This is another of my grandmother’s recipes.  She used to use Spy apples in the recipe.  If you can’t find them a tart apple like Granny Smith apples will work.

1 cup sugar

1/2 cup butter

1 egg

1/2 cup cold coffee.

1/2 cup grated apple

1/2 cup chopped raisins

1/2 cup chopped nuts

Mix the above together.  In a separate bowl combine

1 1/2 cups flour

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/4 tsp cloves

1/4 tsp nutmeg

Pour wet ingredients into dry and mix thoroughly.  Pour batter into greast pan and bake for 30 to 40 minutes.

Loaf can be frosted with icing sugar mixed with orange juice.
