    Hard Apple Cider Cake


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    6 cups flour
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1 teaspoon grated nutmeg
    1 cup butter, softened
    3 cups sugar
    4 eggs
    1 cup cider (hard apple cider, not sparkling, is what we use. Any good cider should work, but something dry rather than sweet is best.)

    Recipe



    In a bowl, mix together flour, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg and set aside. In an electric mixer, cream butter well, then add sugar gradually, creaming until fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, and beat thoroughly. On low or "stir" speed, add the flour mixture alternately with the cider, beating until smooth after each addition.

    Grease 2 loaf pans (or 4 smaller ones) and distribute batter evenly. Bake at 350 degrees for about 1 hour (gas oven may take 10 minutes longer) until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Keep moist with a chunk of apple in the container. Freezes well.
