4 Eggs; to 6 1/4 lb Butter; plus
2 c Sugar 2 tb Shortening
2 c Flour 2 tb Vanilla
1 c Milk 2 tb Baking powder
Beat eggs and sugar until light. Sieve flour three or four times
before measuring. Add baking powder to flour and sieve. Add to
batter half at a time. Boil together butter and milk and while
boiling pour over batter. Add vanilla last.
Beat well and bake in two 9″ pans for 30 min at 375 degrees, or until
done.
If you have an electric mixer you won’t have to beat so much.
