Recipe Introduction
This recipe is from my grandmother's notes. She did not specify a pan to use, I usually use a tube pan.
She also did not specify length of time for baking, so it depends on the individual oven.
List of Ingredients
1 cup applesauce
1 cup coffee
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup molasses
1/2 cup raisins
1 teaspoon each of cinnamon and cloves
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
Recipe
Preheat oven to 325F.
Combine all ingredients and mix well.
Add enough flour to make a stiff batter, but not too stiff.(approx. 2-1/4 to 3 cups)
This makes a large moist cake. Bake in preheated oven about 1-1/4 hours or until done.
