Tried 'n' True: 7-Up cake fast to make, but needs time to bake
By Jackie Lindley
Special to the Tribune-Star
West Union, IL —
I got this recipe from Dana Eslinger, my cousin in Sullivan, in the late 1970s or early 1980s.
I made this cake several times when my boys were home but I haven’t made it in a while. I just about forgot about it.
This dessert doesn’t take many ingredients and though it’s fast to make, it takes a while to bake.
Dana used to take it to our reunion. We didn’t have much left over.
7-Up Cake
1-1/2 cups margarine or butter
3 cups sugar
5 eggs
3 cups flour
2 tablespoon lemon extract
3/4 cups 7-Up
--Cream sugar and margarine together and beat until light and fluffy.
--Add flour.
--Beat in lemon extract and 7-Up.
--Pour batter into well greased and floured large fluted mold.
--Bake at 325 degrees for 1 to 11/4 hours.
Note: You can use an angel food cake pan.
