Mrs. Roberts’ Pound Cake
1/2 cup Butter
1 cup Milk
1/2 cup Crisco
6 Eggs
3 cups Sugar
3 cups Cake Flour
1 tsp. Vanilla Butter-Nut Flavoring
Cream butter, Crisco and sugar thoroughly. Add eggs (one at a time) as you continue to beat. Sift flour several times. Add milk and flavoring alternately with flour. Beat just enough to mix thoroughly (too much beating makes cake tough). Grease and flour tube pan. Shake out excess flour. Start cake in a cold oven. Cook at 300 degrees for 1 hour. Raise temperature to 350 degrees and cook until cake is brown. Let cake cool at least 15 minutes before removing from pan. Cool on rack.
