Culinary Delights- Spiralbound Cookbook #42

This cookbook was created by the Coin (Iowa?) United Methodist Women in 1978.  It's a nice, thick cookbook, crammed with awesome recipes.  Here's the cookbook:

The recipe I've chosen to feature is for RAISIN SPICE CAKE, attributed to Lucile Rinehart Korntved:

Raisin Spice Cake

1 c. raisins
2 c. water
1/2 c. Crisco
1 c. sugar
1 3/4 c. flour
1 tsp. soda
1 tsp. cloves
1 tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. allspice
1/4 tsp. salt
1 beaten egg
1/2 c. nuts

Add water to raisins and boil 10 minutes.  Remove from heat, add Crisco.  Let cool while sifting sugar, flour, soda, spices and salt together.  Add to cooled raisin mixture and beat well.  Add beaten eggs and nuts.  Pour into greased 9 x 13-inch pan and bake 30 to 40 minutes in 375 degree oven.

Enjoy!
