*Boil 2 quarts of water with the first three ingredients on low for 20 minutes . Strain it because of the cinnamon bark and cloves. Set the liquid aside.
*slice the bolillos , butter both sides, bake on each side @350, until they are golden crispy like a crouton (the bread will absorb the piloncillo liquid).
*butter the pan and the sides
*layering the bread , top it with raisins, nuts and cheese , then top it with 2c of the juices and REPEAT the layers again.
