This is for a bundt cake. I used to just bring this to church for after service, then husband brought one into the office about 6 years ago, now I am stuck making 20-25 every holiday. No kidding I have the people on a sign up sheet. I have made 12 already this year. Be advised, your pants may be a little snug after eating--but it can serve a crowd. I also make this for bake sales and cut up the cake in baggies.
It is really easy to make, and only has 6 ingredients--the key is to use quality.
7-up cake
1 1/2 sticks of butter (use butter, nothing fake)
3 cups of sugar (use cane, not beet)
5 eggs
3 cups of flour (I am not picky on flour)
2 Tablespoons of Lemon Extract
3/4 cup of newly opened 7-up (if the pop is flat, the cake won't rise)
Cream butter and sugar in a mixer. Add eggs one at a time. Slowly fold in flour. Add lemon extract, and finally slowly add 7-up. Pour into a well greased and floured large bundt pan.
Bake at 325 for 75 minutes.
You can add glaze, but usually I just dust with powdered sugar. I have tried a couple lemon glazes off the internet, haven't found one I can't live without.
