  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 1/2 cup lard or 1/2 cup butter
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 3 eggs , whites beaten stiff
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 3 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp milk

Directions:

  1. Soak poppy seeds in 1 1/4 c milk overnight.
  2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  3. Beat egg whites.
  4. Cream lard,salt, sugar, honey, 3 egg yolks and vanilla together. Add dry ingredients; then add poppy seed mixture. When blended, fold in stiffly beaten egg whites. Put in greased and floured cake pan.
  5. Bake until cake springs back when touched, about 40 minutes. Libby doesn't have exact time here folks. I was lucky to get measurements for her food-she's been doing it so long.
