Another one from my college recipe cookbook. I only had this cake once. A girl in my home ec ("Family Meal Management") class made it, and I remember thinking, "This is UNBELIEVABLE." At the time, I figured I would never be able to afford the number of extracts needed to make the cake. But you know what? Maybe now I can. Here's to seeing how it tastes to me ten years after.
Cake:
2 cubes butter, softened
1/2 C shortening
3 C sugar
5 eggs, beaten
1/2 t baking powder
3 C flour
1 C milk
1 t vanilla, butter, lemon, rum, and coconut extract
Glaze:
1 C sugar
1/2 C water
1 t vanilla, butter, lemon, rum, and coconut extract
Cream butter, shortening, and sugar till fluffy. Add beaten eggs. Combine baking powder and flour. Add to cream mixture alternately with milk. Mix in flavorings. Put in a well-greased and floured bundt pan. Bake at 350.
Make glaze by adding sugar, water, and flavoring. Bring to a boil. Turk cake over on to plate. Drizzle glaze on top of cake until gone. Top with whipped cream and fruit of choice. Serve.
