(Archived Mar 01, 2010)Eggless, Milkless and Butterless Cake
EGGLESS, MILKLESS, BUTTERLESS CAKE
In a saucepan put: 1 cup sugar, 1 cup raisins, 1/2 cup shortening, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon cloves, and 1 cup hot water. Bring to a boil.
Cool, then add: 1 3/4 cup flour, 1/8 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon vanilla, and 1 teaspoon baking soda, dissolved in a little warm water.
Mix well, put into small baking pan, and bake at 350F, 25 to 30 minutes, or until done in the center. You can serve it as is, or sprinkle with powdered sugar or add a thin glaze.
