Apple Cake with Brown Sugar Cream Sauce

This cake is moist and delicious, a nice change if you want to use apples, but want something different than a pie.  The sauce is amazing.  Really.  Serve with vanilla ice cream as an excuse to eat more sauce. 

Cream together:
1 1/4 cups canola or vegetable oil
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
After the mixture is creamed stir in 1 tsp. of vanilla.

In a separate bowl combine:
3 cups flour
1 heaping tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder

Add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture and mix until they are well combined.

Stir into mixture:
3 cups of chopped apples
1 cup of chopped pecans

Pour into a 9x13 baking pan and bake at 350 for 40-50 minutes until cooked through.  Check middle with a toothpick.

Sauce:
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup heavy cream
dash of salt
1 tsp. vanilla

Mix in a small saucepan over medium/low heat until butter and sugars are melted.  Mix together well and serve over cake.
