FARMERS FRUIT CAKE. Soak three cups dried apples over night in warm water and simmer two hours in two cups of molasses, Add two well beaten eggs, one cup sugar, 1 cup raisins, 1 cup butter, 1 teaspoon cloves and cinnamon and 2 teaspoons soda, dissolved in one cup of milk. Flour enough to make rather a stiff batter.

Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
