Variations. When frosting is ready to spread, stir in ½ cup chopped pecans or hazelnuts, or shredded almonds.
For a more festive cake, sprinkle ¼ cup pink-tinted shredded coconut over the top after frosting is spread.
APPLE SNACKS
As a snack, or a fruity appetizer for tea, use apple slices spread with a topping. Applewiches they are sometimes called, especially when a second apple slice is placed over the topping.
To prepare the slices, core the apple and cut thick rounds, leaving the colorful peel on. Toppings include—
Soft sharp cheese ... cream cheese with strawberry jam or chopped nuts ... peanut butter and mayonnaise ... sliced ham, chicken, or turkey, or any of these meats ground and mixed with mayonnaise.
