This is a great recipe from my grandmother. She even taught both of my brothers how to make this because it is a family favorite. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do. Ingredients:
2 cups butter, softened |
3 cups sugar |
8 large eggs |
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
2/3 cup whipping cream |
2 teaspoons vanilla flavoring |
1 teaspoon butter flavoring |
1 teaspoon almond flavoring |
Directions:
1. Using a heavy mixer, beat the butter until light and creamy (about 2 minutes).
2. Gradually add the sugar and beat well on medium speed for 6 minutes.
3. Add the eggs, one at a time.
4. Add the flour and whipping cream, alternating, but beginning and ending with flour and blending on low until mixture is well blended.
5. Add the flavorings.
6. Pour batter into a tube pan which has been greased and floured to prevent sticking.
7. Bake at 300° for 1 1/2 hours (depending on your oven, it might take longer-insert a wooden toothpick in the center and if it comes out clean, the cake is done).
8. Cool on wire rack for 15 minutes before turning out on to cake plate.
9. This can also be baked in 2 loaf pans for 1 hour or so (use the toothpick method to test for doneness).
