MY FAVORITE time to visit my grandmother was when she'd just taken her crumb cake out of the oven. A warm piece of that cake with a cold glass of milk was the best treat. I remember Grandma was able to simply look at the batter and know if it was right...and it was perfect every time. -Kathy Lucas, Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania
Ingredients:
1/2 cup shortening
1 cup sugar
2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk
confectioners' sugar
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, cream shortening and sugar until light and fluffy. Combine dry ingredients; add to creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk, beating well after each addition.
2. Pour into a greased 9-in. round baking pan. Bake at 375° for 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack to cool completely. Just before serving, dust with confectioners' sugar. Yield: 8 servings.
