Spice Cake Recipe

For an inexpensive spice cake, take one-half cup of butter, one cup of

sugar, one egg, (white beaten separately), one and one-half cups of

flour, two teaspoonfuls of baking powder, half a cup of milk,

one-quarter teaspoonful ground cloves, one-quarter teaspoonful nutmeg,

one teaspoonful cinnamon, half a teaspoonful vanilla. Cream the butter

and sugar, add yolk of egg and beat very light. Sift flour and baking

powder, and stir in alternately with the milk. Add spice and flavoring

next, then the stiff white, and bake either in gem pans or in a loaf.

Half a cupful of seeded raisins or currants will be an improvement.
