This is a very simple cake. I made it for my Dad when he came to visit, and he said it smelled like pancakes. I got this out of the 1953 Better Homes And Gardens New Cookbook. Ingredients:
1/2 cup shortening |
1 1/2 cups sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
2 eggs |
2 1/4 cups sifted cake flour |
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 cup milk, plus |
2 tablespoons milk |
Directions:
1. Stir shortening to soften.
2. Gradually add sugar, and cream together until light and fluffy.
3. Add vanilla.
4. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each.
5. Sift flour, baking powder, salt together 3 times, add to creamed mixture alternately with milk, a little at a time.
6. Beat after each addition till smooth.
7. Bake in 2 paper-lined 9x1 1/2-inch round pans in moderate overn (375°) about 25 minutes.
