    Have a hot cup of coffee or cold glass of milk with this family
    favorite.

    1 cup milk
    2 sticks of butter
    1/2 cup solid vegetable shortening
    3 1/2 cups flour
    5 eggs
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    2 teaspoons vanilla (or rum flavoring)

    Recipe



    Cream butter until fluffy, then add shortening and cream it. Add
    sugar to butter/shortening mixture and cream until fluffy and light.
    Drop in 1 whole egg at a time, beating after each one until you have
    used the 5 eggs. Now fold in flour and baking powder, sifted
    together. Add flavoring. Mix gently. Add milk. Mix gently. Bake
    at 325 degrees for 1 hour and 20 minutes.
