Depression Cake

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 325u00b0. Combine raisins, water, sugar, butter, cinnamon and allspice in a large saucepan or Dutch oven and bring to a boil. Cook for 2 or 3 minutes, then set aside to cool. When cool, stir in the flour and baking soda. If mixture seems too thick compared to regular cake batter, add a little more water, a teaspoon at a time. Pour batter into two 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 greased and floured loaf pans. Bake for 60 to 70 minutes or until wooden toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Yield: 8 servings.
