Notes: While attending Neshaminy High School in Langhorne, PA all students had to take Cooking, Sewing or Shop classes, I took cooking and sewing, and this recipe was one that we had in Cooking class, where we learned mostly baking. In sewing I learned to make a Broom Skirt and an apron. But, at home I had a hard time mastering the art of baking a cake, my cakes would come out looking like cookies, and my Mom would always remind me of how my cakes were a waste of ingredients, but my Dad would always say. "that's okay I like cookies", but I actually don't remember him eating more than one bite. It took a while after I got married to accomplish cake baking, but I think I have finally succeeded.
