This is really yum! I had to, unfortunately, halve the recipe. My raisins were old, and I raided the tiny snack size boxes I had. It was just enough to make 1/2 cup. I wish I would have had more, though. I added lots of chopped pecans. My dd said, "It's good, but the chocolate chips taste weird." I said, "That's because they're raisins!" ROFLOL I will make this again, for sure. I had some Graham flour and was looking for something to use it in. This was it! Thanks=) Made for Holiday TAG!

I made these ages ago and just now realised I had forgotten to review it. Im so sorry, Coffee! It truly is a delicious bread!!! I luv the molasses and raisins together! They make you instantly think of Christmas Holidays...I didnt use the nuts and reduced the brown sugar to 1 tbs as I like it when all the sweetness comes from the fruit. Other than that, though I stuck to the recipe and it was perfect! The loaf came out moist and soft with a nice crust and such a yummy taste! THANKS SO MUCH for sharing your gramma's lovely recipe with us, Coffee! Made and reviewed for Everyday Is A Holiday Tag Game August 09.

This was a very tasty sweet bread, CoffeeB, we loved it. The bread was sweet, rich, moist and dense. I used golden raisins as my dh is allergic to nuts. The flavor of this bread is incredible. I served it sliced thin with a little butter. I used finely ground graham cracker crumbs in place of the flour. The result was a very tasty sweet bread, that tasted as good as it smelled while baking. Thanks so much for sharing your grammas recipe.

I was about ready to order graham flour from Amazon.com, but my special ingredient-finding-sleuth was able to track down some for me & saved the day! This makes for a very dense (& MOST SATISFYING!) bread, especially when I used almost 2 cups of raisins, a dark molasses & 3/4 cup of pistachio nuts! This is one of those breads I fully intend to make during the end-of-year holidays & I'll follow Hokies' tip & sub dried cranberries for the raisins (love 'em both, you know)! Thanks for sharing such a great keeper! [Tagged made & reviewed as a bonus for a special chef in the current Summer Spectacular]
