• 2/3 cup shortening
• 1 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 2 eggs
• 2 cups flour
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp cloves
• dash nutmeg
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 tsp soda
• 1 tsp baking pwd
• 1 cup buttermilk

1. Combine all of the above ingredients in a large bowl with an electric mixer. (This does not work well, unless you use an electric mixer. It needs volume.)
2. Beat on low speed until moistened. Beat on medium-high speed for 3 minutes.
3. Pour into a greased and floured 9x13” pan.

You may bake this right away, instead of refrigerating overnight. It turns out just as well. Very good ~ spicy and moist
