1. Stage

Place raisins, lemon rind, and whiskey in a small bowl; set aside to soak overnight.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line the bottom of an 8-inch square cake pan with parchment paper that is buttered and dusted with flour. Sift flour, salt, cloves, and baking powder into a bowl; set aside.
