Mmmm..
Spice cake from
scratch. This is one of my
favorites. Incidentally, one of the first things I
learned to
cook that actually took any
effort at all.
Spice Cake
A few quick tips before I start with ingredients; I skip the
walnuts because it's
better that way, and the chocolate because it comes out
too sweet that way. I also usually add a little more
nutmeg than the
recipe calls for. If you decide to take my
advice then just skip those ingredients and
omit them from the
preparation steps.
Ingredients:
Combine butter and sugar, beat until light. Beat in eggs one at a time; add flour, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt. Beat for two
minutes. Mix grated chocolate, raisins and nuts (or just raisins if you're making it the way I like it); fold into batter. Pour into well greased loaf pan. Bake on 350 for 50 minutes on bottom rack.
Enjoy!
