    List of Ingredients




    4 cups all-purpose flour
    1 tablespoon baking powder
    2 cups unsalted butter, room temperature
    4 cups confectioners' sugar
    1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
    1/2 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
    1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
    8 large eggs
    1 1/3 cups milk

    Recipe



    Place the oven rack at the upper middle level and preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Grease two 9-by-4-by-2-inch loaf pans and cut two pieces of parchment paper to measure 8 by 15 inches. Line the pans with the parchment, and grease and flour the parchment as well.

    Sift the flour and baking powder into a bowl and set aside. In a second large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

    Add the vanilla, nutmeg and cinnamon. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Mix in the milk and the flour mixture alternately, starting and ending with dry ingredients.

    Pour the batter into the pans and level it with a spatula. Bake for 65 to 75 minutes. After 1 hour, check for doneness -- if a toothpick inserted in the center of each pan emerges clean, the cakes are done. Remove from oven and cool on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Gently remove the cakes from the pans by pulling on the parchment overlaps. Cool for 2 hours before cutting and serving. Makes 20 servings.
