GRANDMA'S TOUCH BOILED RAISIN CAKE

Grandma's Touch Boiled Raisin Cake image

I love recipes that allow me to bake out of the cupboard at those times when the fridge is empty. This is a dense, moist cake that came out of the war years because it is eggless, milkless and could be butterless. It is great topped with Recipe #3730. I have used other dried fruits to replace part of the raisins. Two years in a row I have brought this cake to a scrapbooking retreat and both times received requests for the recipe so I am posting it here. Prep time does not include cooling time.

Ingredients

1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup shortening
1 cup cold water
1 1/2 cups raisins
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
2 cups flour

Mix flour and baking soda and add to cool raisin mixture.
Spread into greased and floured 9" square. Bake at 350 F for about 25 minutes. The top of the cake will bounce back when lightly tapped. Be careful, over cooking will dry it out.
Dust with icing sugar or frost with "Poor Man's Frosting" or forget it. It is great just on it's own.

Amazin' Raisin Cake 1974 image

I used to make this wonderful spicy apple cake in the 70's but I had lost the recipe. For years I tried to remember the name of it and today is the day -- it was called "AMAZIN' RAISIN CAKE!

DON'T KNOCK IT TILL YOU'VE TRIED IT RAISIN CAKE

Don't Knock It Till You've Tried It Raisin Cake image

I love the Little Debbie Raisin Creme Pie Cookies but they stopped stocking them in our area. So I put together a raisin cake that my family had a fit over. And the icing just perfectly kicked the flavor up a notch. And just like the title says "Don't knock it till you've tried it."

Ingredients

1 package(s) duncan hines yellow cake mix
1 1/4 cup(s) raisins
1 1/2 tablespoon(s) all purpose flour
2 cup(s) marshmallow creme
1/2 cup(s) crisco shortening
2 teaspoon(s) water
1/4 teaspoon(s) salt
1/2 cup(s) powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon(s) vanilla extract

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 13" X 9" cake pan with Pam. Put the raisins in a zip lock with 1 1/2 Tbs of flour and shake till they are coated. Then put in a strainer and shake out excess flour. Set aside. This step is to prevent the raisins from sinking to the bottom of the cake.
Prepare the yellow cake mix according to package directions. Spread batter into the cake pan and then sprinkle the raisins all over the top of the batter.
Bake according to the cake mix directions. When done, remove from oven and cool completely. While cake is cooling, prepare the Creme Icing.
Combine the marshmallow creme, shortening, water, powdered sugar, salt, and vanilla in a medium bowl and mix well with an electric mixer on high speed for 3 to 5 minutes until fluffy.
Spread over cake. Makes 1 1/2 cups.
You can easily double this recipe if you require more icing. Any extra icing can be frozen and used on cookies or cupcakes.
