Since this moist cake keeps so well, you can make it the day before serving. It freezes beautifully, too. Flavored with almond extract and poppy seeds, it's great for taking to a picnic or potluck or to present as a hostess gift. Ingredients:
3 eggs |
1-1/2 cups milk |
1 cup canola oil |
1 tablespoon poppy seeds |
1-1/2 teaspoons almond extract |
1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
1 teaspoon butter flavoring |
3 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
2-1/2 cups sugar |
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
glaze: |
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar |
1/4 cup orange juice |
1/2 teaspoon almond extract |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/2 teaspoon butter flavoring |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, beat eggs, milk, oil, poppy seeds, extracts and flavoring. Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt; add to egg mixture until blended.
2. Pour into a greased and floured 10-in. fluted tube pan. Bake at 350° for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack to cool completely.
