Old Fashion Blueberry Cake
1 cup butter
1 large egg
1 cup molasses
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/4 cups milk
3 1/2 cups blueberries
1 teaspoon cloves
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon allspice
Cream butter and sugar; add egg and beat well. Add vanilla and molasses. Add sifted dry ingredients alternately with milk. Dredge the blueberries with a little flour (this keeps them from sinking to the bottom of the cake). Add the dredged blueberries and fold in gently. Bake 1 1/2 hours at 350 degrees in two loaf pans or a large pan filled about 2/3 full. May take longer for the larger cake. Cake is baked when skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
