Cold Oven Pound Cake

Recipe By : 
Serving Size : 12 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Cakes

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ ---------------------------------
1/2 Cup Shortening
2 Sticks Butter -- Softened
3 Cups Sugar
1/4 Tsp Salt
5 Large Eggs
1 Cup Evaporated Milk
3 Cups Flour

1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
1/2 Tsp Lemon Extract
1/2 Tsp Almond Extract
1/2 Tsp Butter Extract
OR
2 Tbs Butter and Nut Flavoring

Bring all ingredients to room temperature.

Cream the shortening, butter, sugar, and salt very well. Add eggs, on at a time, beating well after each addition. Add flour alternately with milk, mixing well after each addition. Mix in extract. Turn into a greased and floured tube or bundt pan.

Put in a COLD OVEN set to 325 degrees.

Bake approximately 1 1/2 hours. Do NOT open the door of the oven for at least the first hour. The cake is done when a toothpick comes out practically clean, and the cake is just starting to pull away from the sides of the pan. Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10-15 minutes, then invert onto a serving plate to finish cooling. The flavor develops best if made the day before serving.
