Day 21: A Recipe...You're gonna wanna copy this one down ;) I promise!


I'm about to share a secret that I actually like to keep secret for a reason.  Because this recipe is AMAZING & a hit at any party.  I decided I shouldn't be selfish anymore ;)

Drum roll please..............

POPPY SEED CAKE
Pre-Heat oven to 350 degrees.  This recipe makes two loaves or 1 bundt.
(I tend to mix the dry & wet in separate bowls & then combine into one large bowl)
Bake for 1 Hour.

Ingredients needed:
3 Cups Flour
2 Cups Sugar
1 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
1 1/2 tsp Salt
3 Eggs
1 1/2 Cups Milk
1 1/8 Cups Vegetable Oil *Do not use Canola...ick!*
1 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract
1 1/2 tsp Almond Extract
1 1/2 Butter Extract
2 Tblspns Poppy Seeds

Glaze
*I prefer to double this recipe..makes the cake much more moist*
1/2 Cup Sugar
1/4 Cup Orange Juice
1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
1/2 tsp Almond Extract
1/2 tsp Butter Extract
(Cook two minutes on stove making it into a sauce) Let cool.

After the cake is lifted out of the pan go ahead & take a knife & poke a lot of holes into the cake & let cool for 15 minutes.  I then take the glaze & pour it all on. 
Enjoy!!!!!
