Hunters Cake Recipes

HUNTER'S CAKE

Steps:

• In a large covered cooking pot, combine raisins, sugar, water, molasses, shortening, cinnamon, cloves, salt, nutmeg, and rum. Bring to a boil and boil gently for 10 minutes, stirring often. Let cool to room temperature, preferably overnight.
• Combine flour and baking soda and stir into the cooled mixture. Stir by hand and only enough to thoroughly mix in the flour.
• Grease 2 bread pans and line bottom with waxed paper. Pour mixture into pans and bake at 350 for 1 hour. Check to see if a toothpick comes out clean, and if not, bake up to 10 minutes more. Do not overbake.
• Cool on a rack for 10 minutes, then run a knife around sides and remove cakes from pans. Cool completely and wrap in aluminum foil.

SIMPLY GOOD CAKE

Steps:

• 1. Cake: Mix well all wet ingredients, including eggs. I use wooden spoon for mixing.
• 2. Sift all dry ingredients together, then stir into wet ingredients, mixing well.
• 3. Add chopped pecans last and blend well.
• 4. Pour into greased and floured bundt pan and bake at 350* for 35 minutes...depending on oven, may take longer. Cake is done when toothpick stuck in middle comes out clean. Should have nice, slightly brown appearance. Remove from pan to cooling rack after 10-15 min. Poke holes in cake with sharp object(I use bamboo skewer).
• 5. ICING: While cake is cooling...make icing as follows: Mix all ingredients, except pecans, with hand mixer until well blended. Spread over cake(while still warm), and top with chopped pecans! Move onto cake server and let cool completely. ENJOY!
