To make a light and fluffy mixture, combine the butter that has been softened and the granulated sugar in a large mixing bowl and cream together until the mixture is light and fluffy, it will take roughly two to three minutes to complete. A single egg at a time should be beaten into the mixture, and then the pure vanilla essence should be added. Keep on stirring until all of the ingredients are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
4th Step
While stirring constantly, gradually add the unsweetened applesauce to the wet mixture, and continue to whisk until everything is well incorporated. While stirring constantly, gradually add the dry ingredient combination to the wet ingredient mixture. Stir until everything is just blended.
