Recipe type: Baking
Serves: 12 - 15 portions
Ingredients
  • 5 eggs large
  • 1 cup of sweet butter, softened
  • 2 cups of sugar
  • 4 cups of flour
  • 1 cup of milk
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar and eggs until the mixture is light and fluffy. Add the flour slowly, beating well and adding the milk in between flour additions especially if the batter becomes to thick and runs up the beaters.
  3. Add the baking powder after having added two cups of the flour.
  4. At the very end I add the vanilla and let the batter beat for a minute longer.
  5. If you have a Bundt Pan, this is the perfect recipe for it. But you can also use two loaf pans as well.
  6. Butter and flour the pans or if you are watching your butter intake, use PAM along the insides of the baking pans.
  7. After 55 minutes in the oven, insert a skewer into the middle of the cake to see if it comes out clean, if it has batter stuck to it, bake for another 10 minute and check again.
  8. Depending on the additions you make to the basic cake, it may take one hour and 10 minutes to bake it completely.
