Nuts
Sift spices, baking soda, baking powder, and flour. Blend all ingredients in a bowl and beat for about 8 minutes. Add some raisins coated in flour, if desired. Pour this into a greased cake pan and bake at 350º F. for 45 minutes.
Callie says “Melt butterscotch chips and spread between and over the layers. This is as much icing as I like, it is just a glaze.”
