How to Make A P Spanish Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8x8 inch square baking pan.
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg, ½ teaspoon ground cloves, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon baking soda.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with 1 cup buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Stir in 1 cup raisins.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, prepare the cream cheese frosting:
- Beat together 8 ounces cream cheese, softened, with ¼ cup lemon juice, 1 teaspoon lemon zest, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until smooth.
- Gradually add 2 cups powdered sugar, beating until light and fluffy.
- Cut the cooled cake into three equal layers. Spread a layer of cream cheese frosting between each layer and on top of the cake.
