PS - Jordana, cook the raisins! They're so sweet and plump. I use golden raisins for this cake.

This is awfully similar to my grandmother's Spice Cake. Most of my grandmother's recipes have no eggs. Pretty cool.

This looks yummy. How is the weather there? My sister and her family live in Donelson and I have a very soft place in my heart for Nashville and Tn.

Hi, I'm here from One Woman's Journey. I think that this cake is so interesting. If it tastes as good as it looks...it's a winner.

This must be the cake I've been waiting to bake...as everything is already stocked in my pantry. No running to the store. Yay!

This sounds great!

Jamie (BlondMom) my daughter sent this to me. I featured it on my blog. My grandmother made something similar and called it a raisin cake. I think I will 1/2 it and it will be my size for a few days.

OK, this week. Wait, check that - it's supposed to get hot again. Over the weekend, and it can go in the snack bags for school. I shall report back.

I am SO all over this one.

This sort of baked good is really up my alley. I'm adding Poor Man's Cake to the growing list of your recipes that I must try (Lucy's Salad, now this).

Sounds yummy. I wonder though, whether cooking the raisins is necessary nowadays. Raisins used to be really hard and needed to be softened to be edible, but whatever they put on raisins now keeps them soft, so the softening isn't needed. I also wonder how softening them in rum would taste. Not to go messing with your family recipes, Amy. Just pondering.
