This recipe was published in a Southern Living magazine and my sister and I love it. YOU MUST USE A KITCHEN AID MIXER OR SIMILAR STAND MIXER! You cannot use a hand mixer or rotary bowl mixer. Easy and Yummy. You can glaze with thinned apricot preserves for a little more decadence. I have used the recipe for petit fours baked in a 10 x 15 pan with a poured/dipped fondant. This recipe always brings compliments. Prep time includes cooling. Ingredients:
4 cups flour |
3 cups sugar |
1 lb butter, softened |
3/4 cup milk |
6 large eggs |
2 teaspoons vanilla extract or 1 1/2 teaspoons almond extract |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees Farenheit. 2. Layer in mixer in order given. 3. Beat at low 1 minute. 4. Scrape sides. 5. Beat at medium 2 minutes. 6. Pour batter into a greased and floured 10 inch tube pan. 7. Bake at 325 for 1 hour and 30 minutes or until it tests done in the middle. 8. Cool in pan for 10 minutes. 9. Remove from pan and cool completely. |
