INGREDIENTS:
1 1/3 c. sifted cake flour
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/3 tsp. baking powder
1/8 tsp. ground cloves
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 c. broken nutmeats
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 c. shortening
1 1/2 c. brown sugar
2 eggs
1/2 c. sour milk or buttermilk
DIRECTIONS:
Sift flour, soda, baking powder, cloves, cinnamon, and salt together. Cream the shortening until soft; gradually add one cup of the brown sugar; continue to cream until light and fluffy. Beat one whole egg and one egg yolk until light; add to sugar mixture, and beat thoroughly. Add sifted dry ingredients to mixture alternately with the sour milk, beating after each addition until smooth. Turn into greased and lightly floured loaf pan (8 x 8 x 2 inches). Spread with a meringue made as follows: beat the remaining one egg white until quite stiff; gradually add remaining 1/2 cup brown sugar, continuing to beat, using either a hand beater or an electric beater at high speed. Then sprinkle with nutmeats, and bake in a moderate oven (350 degrees F.) for 50 minutes.
