List of Ingredients




1/2 Pound butter
3 Cups sugar
1 Teaspoon rum extract
3 Cups flour
1 Cup half and half
1/2 Cup shortening
5 Eggs
1 Teaspoon vanilla
1 Teaspoon baking powder
1 cup black walnuts -- chopped


Recipe



Cream butter and shortening. Add sugar and beat until very light. Add
eggs, one at a time, beating well. Add flavoring and beat again. Add
flour mixed with baking powder, alternating with milk, starting and
ending with flour. Fold in walnuts.

Pour into a tube pan that has been greased and floured. Use one very
large pan, size 4 3/4 x 9 1/2 inches. Bake for 80 minutes. Or use two
regular pans, size 3 1/2 x 9 inches and bake for 70 minutes. Bake at
325 degrees. Do not open oven during first hour.

NOTE: If you do not like rum flavoring, it may be omitted; however,
increase the vanilla to 2 teaspoons.
