Cake of the Allies



2 c. flour

1 c. sugar

3/4 c. butter

1 c. sour milk

1 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. cloves

1 tsp. cinnamon

1 egg



Cream butter and sugar until crumbly, add flour. Set aside 1/2 cup of

this mixture. To the rest of the mixture, add the milk (into which

you have dissolved the baking soda). Add the spices and mix, then add

egg. Put in greased pan, such as a loaf pan or square cake pan that

you might use for brownies. Sprinkle the reserved 1/2 cup crumb

mixture over the top. Bake at 375 degrees for 30-35 minutes until

tester comes out clean.



Note: This is not a sweet cake, but it is pleasantly spicy. It isn't

a high rising cake, which is why it's prepared in a smaller pan.
