Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Coat a 15x10 inch jelly-roll pan with nonstick baking spray with flour, set aside.

In a large bowl combine eggs and salt. Beat at medium speed with an electric mixer until frothy, about 1 minute. Add sugar and oil; beat until blended. In a small bowl combine flour, baking soda and cinnamon. Add to egg mixture beat just until blended. Fold in apples, nuts and vanilla. Pour into prepared pan and spread evenly.

Bake 30 minutes or until lightly browned and set.

Cool on a wire rack.

In a medium bowl combine confectioners' sugar, butter and enough milk to achieve a spreadable consistency.

Spread over cake. When frosting has set cut cake into bars.
