1/8 teaspoon vanilla extract or 1/8 teaspoon rum extract or 1/8 teaspoon almond extract or 1/8 teaspoon lemon extract |
1/2 cup raisins |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. Grease and flour a babka, bundt or angel food cake pan.
3. Cream butter and sugar together.
4. Combine flour and baking powder.
5. Resume beating while gradually the eggs alternating with the flour mixture.
6. Add salt, extract and raisins and mix well.
