GRANDMA'S BOILED RAISIN CAKE
My favorite cake. As Recipe Zaar won't accept the word small or large I will write here...Grandma's recipe says a large cup of raisins and a small tsp baking powder.

BOILED RAISIN CAKE (CANADIAN WAR CAKE)
This is called War Cake because it was made in Canada during WW2 and was shipped out to the troops serving overseas. My grandmother used to make this cake and let it sit for at least a week before slicing into it. But, this recipe I found in a local fundraising cookbook, calls for it sitting for only one day before slicing it up. Just as yummy as grandmas.

GRANDMA'S TOUCH BOILED RAISIN CAKE
I love recipes that allow me to bake out of the cupboard at those times when the fridge is empty. This is a dense, moist cake that came out of the war years because it is eggless, milkless and could be butterless. It is great topped with Recipe #3730. I have used other dried fruits to replace part of the raisins. Two years in a row I have brought this cake to a scrapbooking retreat and both times received requests for the recipe so I am posting it here. Prep time does not include cooling time.

Steps:
- Mix sugar, butter, water, raisins, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves in pot and bring to a boil. Boil for 3 minutes and then cool.
- Mix flour and baking soda and add to cool raisin mixture.
- Spread into greased and floured 9" square. Bake at 350 F for about 25 minutes. The top of the cake will bounce back when lightly tapped. Be careful, over cooking will dry it out.
- Dust with icing sugar or frost with "Poor Man's Frosting" or forget it. It is great just on it's own.

BOILED RAISIN CAKE
This recipe was in a box of loose recipes I'd cut out of magazines and newspapers. I'm posting it here so it won't get lost. See NOTE at bottom of recipe if you don't have pastry flour. UPDATE-- Made this today. It didn't rise much, maybe it's not supposed too. I did use pastry flour. The flavor is wonderful. I dropped the salt down to 1/2 teaspoon, and used butter instead of shortening. There's less than 1/2 left it was so tasty.

Steps:
- In saucepan. place raisins, brown sugar, hot water, shortening, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
- Bring mixture to boiling point, cover and let simmer for 6 minutes.
- Cool to lukewarm and add vanilla.
- Add soda to flour and mix.
- Combine flour and raisin mixture well.
- Bake in buttered 9X5" loaf pan in 325° oven for 1-1 1/4 hours. Cool in pan.
- This cake improves with keeping.
- -------------------------------------.
- NOTE--It can be a challenge to find pastry flour. Even well-stocked supermarkets seldom carry more varieties than cake flour, all-purpose flour (9% to 12% protein), and bread flour. If you can't find pastry flour, you can mix your own by combining cake flour and all-purpose flour in a ratio somewhere between two parts cake flour to one part all-purpose and one part cake flour to one part all-purpose.

GRANDMA JOYCE'S BOILED RAISIN CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
This cake (sans frosting) has no butter and no eggs in it--great for when you are raiding the pantry. (The frosting, however, is a different story, but soooo good!) Although the prep time is short, you'll want to have time to let the boiled raisins cool a bit.

Steps:
- Boil the sugar, raisins, and water for about a minute until the raisins begin to plump. Set aside to cool.
- When cool, drain raisins, reserving raisin water. Add oil, spices, and vanilla to raisin water. Mix baking soda with flour and add slowly to the raisin water mixture. Fold in raisins.
- Pour into 9 x 13 cake pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes, until tester comes out clean.
- Frosting: beat together cream cheese, butter and powdered sugar. This makes probably more frosting than than most people like on a 9 x 13 cake, but I say pile it on.
