Mother Dear


Recipe Introduction




I wonder sometimes if lemon and chocolate were made on the same day. I adore most lemon-flavored desserts. This is one of the best. The measurements are approximate so feel free to experiment with them.


List of Ingredients





2 sticks (1/2 lb) butter
1/2 cup butter-flavored Crisco
2 1/2 cups sugar
5 eggs
3 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup milk
2 teaspoons lemon juice
2 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Glaze:

Juice of 1 lemon (or more)
grated rind of lemon
1/2 stick butter
1/2 of a small box of confectioners sugar



Recipe



Preparation In a mixer bowl, beat the butter with the Crisco. Slowly add the sugar. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add flour and baking powder alternately with mmilk. Add lemon juice and vanilla extract. Pour mixture into greased and floured tube pan. Bake at 300 degrees for 1 1/2 hour. Mix together all ingredients for the glaze and pour over the cake while still hot.
