Ingredients

  • 2 sticks (1 cup) margarine, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup solid shortening
  • 3 cups sugar
  • 5 large eggs
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon lemon flavoring
  • Baker's Joy

Method

  • 1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. In a mixing bowl, cream butter & shortening. Add sugar, beating until well-mixed. Add eggs one at a time.
  • 2. Sift flour & baking powder then add alternately with milk, mixing thoroughly. Add flavorings.
  • 3. Pour into large bundt pan (preferably one without the funny shapes - we go for a smooth, round tube pan in my family) that has been sprayed with Baker's Joy. (Alternately, you can rub pan with butter & coat with flour. But Baker's Joy seems to work best.)
  • 4. Bake for 1 hour & 15-20 minutes at 325 degrees F.
