Applesauce Cake with Brown Sugar Glaze

This is a modified version of a mandarin orange cake my mom makes. It's actually just as good with the mandarin oranges, and all you have to do is omit the applesauce and use a small can (8 oz, I think) of mandarin oranges, drained, it its place.

Cake:
1/2 cup applesauce
1/2 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup flour
1 egg
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. baking soda

Combine all ingredients in a medium-sized mixing bowl with electric beaters, if possible.

Pour into greased 8" or 9" square pan (a round one will work if you don't have a square one.) Bake at 350º for about 25 minutes.

Topping:
1 generous Tbsp (make it a little rounded) Country Crock, or other low-calorie margarine substitute
2 Tbsp brown sugar
2 Tbsp skim milk

Put all ingredients into a shallow saucepan and heat to boiling on a medium heat.

When cake comes out of the oven, poke holes in it with a fork, chopstick, or other small utensil. Pour hot topping over hot cake and allow to saturate.

ENJOY.
