We are having my son's 7th birthday party tomorrow and he wants a "Kitty-Litter Cake" complete with tapered ended Tootsie Rolls . I've made one before and they look horrible. I am looking forward to all the wrinkled up 1st grader faces!

Fantastic! Almost wants me want to have another party for first graders--NOT!

They sure were fun though and I bet yours will really get a kick out of that cake!
Oh yeah...I made chocolate frosted banana cake yesterday...I think I need to get some new baking powder--it is very dense and tough! Terri O

I have used applesauce before in a variety of baking. You can use it in muffins, loaves, etc instead of oil. If you want to add it to a regular bread recipe, I would. You would probably have to adjust the flour amount. You could also add pumpkin, mashed carrots, sweet potatoes, etc. if you wish.
Check out my blog where I made carrot buns instead of sweet potato rolls - they were great.

I use recipes as a guideline not something set in stone. So with bread, I find if you add more liquid ingredients then you need to add more dry - simple as that. I add wheat germ, bran, flax, sunflower seeds, etc. to the dough as well. For the grains, I add less whole wheat flour. For seeds, etc. I just add them and adjust as the dough mixes.

I posted the recipe before on this thread.
