And speaking of cake....
Piece of cake with a side of tea. Yumm. |
Let me share this recipe I tried in our kitchen. It's your classic pound cake with a twist. Milk is replaced with sour milk (lemon juice plus milk). I love the tartness of the lemon. I also added some raspberry jam and significantly reduced the amount of sugar specified in the original recipe.
So, without further ado....
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cups white sugar
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup milk with lemon juice
3 eggs
1 pinch baking soda
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a 9-inch square pan.
2. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the sour milk and eggs.
3. Add flour and pinch of soda, mix well.
4. Pour into the pan.
5. Bake at 350 degrees F for 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into center of cake comes out clean.
I like my piece of cake with a cup of tea. How do you like yours?
