This is a yeast-risen cake that is based on our family's Easter Bread. I have never made it, but found it on the back of a very old index card of my grandmother's. It looks to be an easier version of the bread (#165701). The instructions are vague, but I'm going to do the best I can. Times are estimates and I have no idea how much this makes.
Ingredients:
6 eggs
2 cups sugar
1 fresh yeast cake
1/2 cup warm water
2 1/2-3 lbs flour
1 cup milk
1 1/2 cups oil
Directions:
1. Beat eggs, sugar, milk and oil mixture.
2. Dissolve the yeast cake in the warm water.
3. Add to egg mixture and gradually add flour.
4. Let rise for 6 hours. (I assume covered and in a warm place.).
5. Bake at 275 degree oven for 1 hour.
