Ingredients:
1 3/4 cups flour
1 1/4 cups sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup butter flavor shortening
2/3 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/3 cup milk
1 eggs
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Grease and flour a 9 inch x 9 inch pan.
Sift dry ingredients together.
Add shortening, the 2/3 cup milk, and the vanilla; beat for 2 minutes.
Add the 1/3 cup milk and egg; beat for 2 more minutes.
Pour into prepared pan.
Bake for about 45-50 minutes or until done. You might check a little earlier because my oven runs cool. If doubling or tripling the recipe, you’ll have to increase the cooking time substantially.
UPSIDE DOWN CAKE:.
If making pineapple upside down cake, use the strained juice in the batter, reducing the milk by the amount of juice used.
Drop pieces of butter and sprinkle brown sugar on pan.
Lay pineapple rings down.
