Ingredients

- 4 c flour

If you wish to season this with spirits use about 1/2 cup of rum or brandy and after the cake has cooled thorougly, pour the alcohol gently over the cake. It may be best to do this just a little at a time over the period of 30 min. or so. Wrap tightly in foil and store in a cool place for as long a 3 months. After I give this cake as a gift, I recommendthat, after opening, it be stored in the refrigerator. Recipe By : Maureen Hustead / Formatted by Cheryl Gimenez
