INSTRUCTIONS
Set a rack at the middle level of the oven. Preheat to 350 degrees. In an
electric mixer beat together the butter and brown sugar on medium speed
until smooth, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, and beat until
each is incorporated, scraping the bowl occasionally with a rubber spatula.
Combine the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg and salt and add
half to the butter mixture. Mix at low speed. Add molasses and buttermilk,
then remaining dry ingredients. By hand, fold in the raisins and nuts. Pour
the batter into the prepared jelly-roll pan and bake for about 15 minutes
or until the center is set. Let cool in the pan on a rack. When completely
cool, cut into 2-inch squares.
Storage: Keep hermits tightly covered at room temperature or wrap in
plastic and freeze.
Yield: 36 two inch squares
