Directions:
- In a large bowl, cream shortening and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with milk, beating well after each addition.
- Pour half of the batter into another bowl. Add vanilla to one bowl; add the syrup, cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg to the second bowl. Pour each batter into a greased and floured 9-in. round baking pan.
- Bake at 375° for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool.
- In a small saucepan, combine sugar and cornstarch; gradually stir in water until smooth. Add raisins. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat; stir in lemon juice, butter and peel. Cool.
- In a small bowl, whisk the sugar, butter and lemon peel. Add milk until icing reaches desired consistency. Place the spice cake layer on a serving platter; spread with filling. Top with vanilla cake layer; drizzle with icing. Yield: 12 servings.
