While I was growing up my mother used to buy these great spice cakes but unfortunately they stoppeds making them. I found this recipe some time ago and it surprised me when I found out they taste exactly the same as that cake I used to have years ago.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 Cup of butter or margarine (softened)
- 1 Cup of sugar
- 1 Cup of dark corn syrup
- 2 Tsp. cinnamon
- 1 Tsp. ground cloves
- 1/2 Tsp. of baking soda mixed with 1 Tsp. water
- 3 3/4 to 4 Cups flour
Cream butter or margarine with sugar and corn syrup. Stir in cinnamon, cloves and
baking soda mixture.
Add flour a little at a time, mixing well after each addition until stiff
dough forms. Cover dough and refrigerate until firm.
Preheat oven to 400 F.
Roll dough into logs about 1-inch in diameter and slice crosswise into 1-inch-thick rounds.
Bake on ungreased cookie sheets until lightly browned, about 8 to 10 minutes.
