Made Olga's Beefaroni tonight and it was stupendous. Made a 7up pound cake to go with it. This recipe is too easy to be true and is wonderful for up to 5 days. Gets better as it goes. Recipe comes from Grace Temple Baptist Church cookbook from Denton Texas.
1 1/2 cup butter
3 cups sugar
5 eggs
3 cups flour
lemon extract to taste, or lemon zest and about a 1/4 lemon juice, (I use Boyajian lemon citrus oil (about 1/2 tsp)
smidgen of almond extract
3/4 cup 7up
Cream butter and sugar, add eggs one at a time until well mixed. Add flour and 7up alternately, beating well. Add flavorings. Bake at 350 in angel food cake that has been greased and floured for 1 hour 15 mins or until toothpick comes out clean. cool 1 hour on rack. Cover and will keep 5 days, only getting better. Great with strawberries and whipped cream.
