     1/3  cup           sugar
                        dry sugar sub equal to 3/4 c
                        sugar
   1      teaspoon      cinnamon
     1/2  teaspoon      nutmeg
     1/4  teaspoon      cloves
   1 1/2  cups          unsweetened applesauce -- hot
   2      teaspoons     baking soda
     1/2  cup           walnuts -- chopped
     1/4  cup           raisins
 

Preparation:

Place flour, sugar, dry sugar substitute, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves in mixer bowl and mix a low speed to blend well. Combine HOT applesauce and baking soda ( don't try to be modern and use cold applesauce and mix with baking soda with the flour; it doesn't work as well that way), and add, along with oil, walnuts and raisins, to flour mixture. Mix at medium speed until flour is moistened and batter in creamy. Spread batter evenly in a 9" by 13" cake pan that has been sprayed with pan spray or greased well with margarine. Bake at 375 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes, or till bars pull away from the sides of the pan and a cake tester comes out clean from the center. Cool on a wire rack. Cut three by
