Blue Moon Applesauce Cake

Preheat oven to 350ºF. Grease a 9×13 cake pan with nonstick cooking spray.

In a large bowl, beat applesauce and sugar with a handheld mixer until smooth and creamy. Add in vanilla and eggs, beating between each addition. Stir in food colorings, orange juice and zest.

In another bowl, sift together flour, baking powder and salt. Slowly add the flour mixture to the applesauce mixture, about 2 cups of it, stirring between each addition. Add the Blue Moon and milk. Add remaining flour and stir well. (If mixture is too runny, add 1–2 tablespoons additional flour.)

Pour mixture into the prepared cake pan. Bake for at least 40 minutes, or until cake is golden and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.

Let dry completely before frosting. Garnish with extra orange zest and enjoy!
