Ann's Spice Cake

This recipe came from a favorite neighbor in the apartment building where my first husband and I lived. Ann was an elderly Italian woman, who was always delighted to visit and share her baking. Here is the best spice cake recipe I've experienced, no matter how many decades have passed:

1 stick butter, melted in a saucepan. To the pan, add:
1 cup sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp cloves
1 1/2 c. water
coconut, raisins, dates and/or nuts as desired
Boil 5 minutes, cool.
Add:
2 cups flour
1 tsp baking powder
Place in greased baking pan, bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
