    Categories: Cakes, Fruits, Dairy
    Yield: 16 servings

    16 oz Dried apples; chopped
    5 c Water
    1 c (packed) brown sugar
    2 ts Apple pie spice
    1 c Butter; softened
    2 c Sugar
    2 lg Eggs; room temp
    2 ts Vanilla extract
    6 c A-P flour
    3 ts Baking powder
    1 ts Baking soda
    1/2 c Buttermilk

    - opt

    Place apples and water in a 6 qt. stockpot; bring to a
    boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, 40-45 minutes or
    until apples are softened, stirring occasionally. Mash
    into a chunky sauce. Stir in brown sugar and pie spice;
    simmer, uncovered, 10-15 minutes longer or until liquid
    is absorbed and sauce is thickened. Cool completely.

    Set oven @ 400ºF/205ºC.

    In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and
    fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well
    after each addition. Beat in vanilla. In another bowl,
    whisk flour, baking powder and baking soda; add to
    creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk, beating
    well after each addition.

    Divide dough into 8 portions; shape each into a disk.
    Cut out eight 9" circles of parchment. With a floured
    rolling pin, roll out a dough disk to fit each parchment
    circle. Transfer to baking sheets. Bake until golden
    brown, 10-12 minutes. Remove from pans to wire racks to
    cool completely.

    Place1 layer on a serving plate; spread with 2/3 cup
    filling. Repeat layers. Top with remaining cake layer,
    wrap tightly in plastic wrap; refrigerate 1-2 days or
    until layers soften. If desired, sprinkle cake with
    confectioner's sugar.
