Steps:
- Bring to a boil the first eight ingredients. Cool. Add remaining ingredients and mix together.
- Bake in an 8 x 8 pan at 350 degrees until a toothpick comes out clean. (Mom didn't write a time so I would start checking at 20 minutes but I'm guessing it would take 30-40 minutes to be done.) (It's a small cake so you don't have to worry about lots of leftovers!)
- Note: I haven't made this for quite a while and now I would try to make it healthier. I would use Splenda brown sugar. I would try using unsweetened applesauce or a fruit purée that is sold to replace fats in baking to replace all or part of the shortening. I would replace a good part of the flour with whole wheat, almond or soy flour. I have done all of these things in other recipes and the outcome was good so I have no reason to think that it wouldn't work for this one!

GRANDMA'S TOUCH BOILED RAISIN CAKE
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.

Steps:
- Mix sugar, butter, water, raisins, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves in pot and bring to a boil. Boil for 3 minutes and then cool.
- 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.

Steps:
- Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees.
- Combine sugar, water, vegetable oil, raisins, and spices in a saucepan, and bring to a boil. Boil for 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Take pan off heat and let cool for 10 minutes.
- Dissolve baking soda and salt in 2 teaspoons of water and add to raisin mixture (it will foam).
- Blend in the flour and baking powder. Mix well.
- Pour the batter into a greased 9 inch square pan and bake for 55 minutes, or until a toothpick unserted in the center comes out clean.
- Let cake cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
Tips:
- Use room-temperature ingredients: This will help the batter to come together smoothly and evenly.
- Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the cake tough and dense. Stir only until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake in a preheated oven: This will help to ensure that the cake rises evenly and doesn't sink in the middle.
- Do not open the oven door during baking: Opening the oven door can cause the cake to fall.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting or serving: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting and the cake from crumbling.
