Grandma's Eggless Cake

Ingredients

1/3 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 1/3 cup flour
1 tsp cinnamon
1 cup currants or raisins
1/4 tsp cloves
1 cup Buttermilk
1 tsp Soda
1 tbsp molasses
1 cup Walnuts (not crushed)

Directions

Wash fruit and put in oven until hot through (stir often).  Mix all other ingredients in a bowl together.  Pour over warmed fruit and cook until done.  

Just an FYI...there was no direction for temperature as many of Grandma's recipes.  These recipes were put in this book before conventional ovens were available, and Grandma would use a wood stove.  I would suggest cooking the cake at 350 degrees and checking after about 20 minutes.
