Pumpkin spice cake in jars lawrence

Yield: 8 Servings

Ingredients:

1 c SEEDLESS RAISINS
1 c WALNUTS
2 c ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR
2 ts BAKING SODA
1/4 ts BAKING POWDER
1/2 ts SALT
2 ts GROUND CLOVES
2 ts GROUND CINNAMON
1 ts GROUND GINGER
4 EGGS
2 c GRANULATED SUGAR
1 c SALAD OIL
16 oz Canned PUMPKIN

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 325-degrees. Sterilize 8 (12 oz) Ball Quilted Crystal Canning Jars (14400-81400) lids and rings by boiling them for 10 minutes. Leave the lids and rings in the hot water until you're ready to use them; remove jars and allow the jars to air-dry and cool. Prepare the batter in the meantime. Using a pastry brush brush the inside of the cooled jars with shortening (DO NOT use Pam or Baker's Secret); set aside. Coarsely chop the raisins and walnuts; set aside. Sift together the flour baking soda baking powder salt cloves cinnamon and ginger in a large bowl. Add raisins and walnuts; toss to lightly combine. In another large bowl beat eggs at high speed until thick and yellow (2-3 minutes). Gradually beat in the sugar until thick and light. At low speed beat in the oil and pumpkin; blend well. Gradually stir in the flour mixture until well blended. Divide among the 8 canning jars (should be slightly less than 1/2 full. Wipe the sides of the jar off (inside/ outside) in case you slop or it'll burn. Place jars onto a cookie sheet or they'll tip over. Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until a pick inserted into the center of each jar comes out clean. Have your lids and rings ready. Take one jar at a time from the oven; place a lid and ring on and screw down tightly. Use HEAVY-DUTY mitts--the jars are HOT! Place the jars onto your counter top too cool. You'll know when they've sealed you'll hear a "plinking sound". Posted by ELLIE COLLIN Prodigy ID# CMKD93F.
