Time 1h40m

Yield 9

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups golden raisins
3 tablespoons grated lemon zest
¼ cup whiskey
¾ cup butter, softened
1 cup light brown sugar
3 egg yolks
3 egg whites
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 cups sifted confectioners' sugar
1 lemon, juiced

Steps:

  • Place the raisins, lemon rind, and whiskey in a small bowl and let them soak overnight. Line bottom of an eight-inch square cake pan with parchment paper that is buttered and dusted with flour. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Sift the flour, salt, cloves and baking powder into a bowl and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the egg yolks and beat well. Quickly beat in the flour mixture. Stir in the soaked raisins.
  • In a separate clean bowl, whip the egg whites until stiff and fold them into the mixture. Pour this into your prepared pan and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 45 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Cool the cake thoroughly on a wire rack.
  • To make the glaze: Mix the lemon juice with the sifted powdered sugar and just enough whiskey and warm water so that you can drizzle icing over the cake.
