First, make a basic apple sauce. Core and cut (but don't peel) apples. Boil down the apples for about 10 minutes until soft. Blend the apples in a food processor or blender.
To make apple butter, put in a crock pot:
6 quarts apple sauce
2 T ground cinnamon
1 t ground cloves
1/2 t all-spice
2 cups sugar
Stir the ingredients together and cook overnight (6-12 hours) on medium/low.
Then, the next day, add 4-5 more quarts apple sauce and 2 cups sugar. Cook down for 2 more hours. Put into canning jars while hot, and seal the lids.
That makes the tastiest apple butter EVER.
