RAISIN MOLASSES BARS
I've been going through a lot of old family recipes, and recipes I collected back when I was a young bride and new mother. Most of them were for baked goods. Here is another one - from a bygone era. Not sure where I got it, but we've enjoyed these bars a few times over the years.

Steps:
- 1. Melt butter and cool slightly. Stir in sugar, molasses, egg, and vanilla.
- 2. Sift together the flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, and ginger. Stir the raisins and nuts (if used) into the flour to coat well.
- 3. Combine dry ingredients with the sugar mixture until well blended. Pour into a greased 15 x 10 x 1-inch cookie or jelly roll pan. Bake at 375 degrees for about 12-13 minutes.
- 4. Cut the cake into bars when cool and dust with the cinnamon-sugar topping. *OR, top with the lemon glaze: Stir together, adjusting sugar or juice to desired consistency.
