Steps:
- Before you take a step, read this recipe through. Then get out all the necessary equipment and ingredients.
- Now measure all ingredients accurately using standard measuring utensils. We can't overemphasize how important accurate measuring is.
- Start your oven at 350 (F) or moderate.
- Next, heavily grease bottoms and sides of three 8-inch cake pans with shortening (do not use any salted fat).
- Then coat pans with flour by sifting a little into each pan and shaking vigorously so there is a film of flour over bottoms and sides.
- Dump out any surplus. This device helps baked cakes to drop from pans easily.
- Sift flour, then spoon lightly into a standard measuring cup and cut off excess to make a level cupful. Do not shake flour down into cup.
- Sift flour again, this time with the baking powder, baking soda, salt, cloves, cinnamon and pepper. Right here, if your brown sugar is lumpy, sift or roll it.
- Now, with your nice clean hands, work or cream the shortening, butter or margarine with a beating motion until it looks like whipped cream.
- At this point, begin to work in the brown sugar a little at a time; next the granulated sugar.
- Add vanilla extract.
- Continue creaming until mixture is very fluffy and the grains of sugar almost disappear. This is a bit of a chore, but it's the trick that makes a wonderful texture.
- When sugar is all in, add the eggs, unbeaten, one at a time, beating hard after each addition. From here on, work fast. Don't fool around!
- Now you begin to add the flour mixture.
- Sift about 1/3 into the batter and stir it in. Do not beat.
- Then add about 1/2 of the buttermilk or sour milk and stir it in.
- Repeat these operations, ending with flour.
- Pour batter into greased pans, dividing it evenly.
- Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until cake edges leave sides of pans.
- Remove from oven, allow to cool about 5 minutes before turning out on a cake rack to cool thoroughly.

Steps:
- Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and lightly flour a metal or disposable foil 9-by-13-inch pan. Whisk dry ingredients and spices in a large bowl. Mix milk, eggs and vanilla extract in a 2-cup measuring cup.
- Beat softened butter into dry ingredients, first on low, then medium, until mixture forms pebble-sized pieces. Add about 1/3 of the milk mixture and beat on low until smooth. Add remaining milk mixture in two stages; beat on medium speed until batter is just smooth. Add the sugar; beat until just incorporated, about 30 seconds. Pour batter into cake pan.
- Bake until a cake tester or toothpick inserted into the cake's center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Set pan on a wire rack; let cool for 5 minutes. Run a knife around the pan perimeter and turn cake onto rack. Let cool.
