Applesauce Loaf Cake

(Grandma Brough’s Fruitcake)

1 cup shortening
3 cups sugar
3 eggs
3 teaspoons nutmeg
3 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon cloves
3 teaspoon salt
2 cups raisins
3 cups applesauce
1-12 ounce package chocolate chips
6 cups flour
3 teaspoons soda
Nuts as desired
Candied fruit can be added

Cream shortening and sugar, beat eggs in one at a time. Add spices, salt, raisins, and applesauce. Add flour and soda sifted together. Add as many nuts as desired, few or many. Bake at 350º F for 1 hour. I put candy drops in this instead of fruit (chocolate, raspberry, lemon, butterscotch).
