I am hoping that one of you cooking and baking enthusiasts has a recipe for 1-2-3-4 Pound Cake. My 84-yr. old father-in-law now lives with us, and has mentioned this particular treat from years. I'd love to be able to make it for him.
YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO FIND THE 1-2-3-4 CAKE RECEIPE ON THE BACK OF THE SWANS DOWN CAKE FLOUR BOX. I HAVE TO BAKE THIS FOR MY MOTHER EVERY YEAR AND SHE IS 78 AND WON'T EAT ANYTHING ELSE. FOR SOME REASON I HAVE NEVER WRITTEN DOWN THE RECEIPE SINCE IT IS THE SIGNATURE RECEIPE FOR THAT FLOUR. LIKE THE BANANA PUDDING RECEIPE ON THE NILLA WAFER BOX. ENJOY!
1 cup Crisco 2 cups sugar 3 cups sifted flour 4 eggs 2 to 3 tsp. baking powder 1/2 tsp. salt (opt.) 1 cup milk 1 tsp. vanilla
Combine Crisco and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition. Add mixed dry ingredients alternately with milk beating after each addition. Add vanilla. Pour batter into oblong 13 x 9 x 2-inch pan. Bake 1 hour in 350 º F. oven.

Jill, I submitted the recipe for 1-2-3-4 Pound Cake on Thriftyfun probably sometime between late February-May of this year. If they have archives maybe it's still on file. If you don't locate the recipe I'll DIG IT UP and re-submit it for you.
Hi Jill! What a precious daughter-in-law you are!!! He is blessed. Look what I found while surfing for your cake recipe. I hope it tastes like the one he remembers. God bless you!!! http://www.virtualcities.com/ons/md/f/mdf76015.htm
