Nicky Thelen, Tilden Ne very old recipe; very nice spice cake. You may need a sauce for this cake and I think Nutmeg Sauce is the one that goes with it; it is wicked good. Ingredients:
1/2 cup shortening |
1 cup brown sugar |
2 eggs |
2 cups flour |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg |
1/4 teaspoon clove |
1/2 teaspoon allspice |
1 cup buttermilk |
1 cup raisins |
1/2 cup walnuts |
Directions:
1. Cream shortening and brown sugar. I would do 1/4 cup shortening and 1/4 cup butter.
2. Add eggs.
3. Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and allspice together.
4. Add wet and dry ingredients alternately.
5. Stir in raisins and walnuts.
6. Place batter in lightly greased and floured pan.
7. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 25 minutes in a 13x9 pan. I think this cake would do better in a smaller, taller cake pan but you would have to bake it longer. Bundt pan takes 45 minutes or thereabouts.
