Nell Lewis - Platte City, Missouri
Bake-Off® Contest 15, 1963
This was the year the contest became popularly known simply as "the BakeOff®." Old family recipes were still eligible, if they had a new twist. Here the idea was the hot butter sauce poured slowly over the buttermilk pound cake as it came from the oven.


   CAKE
   _ cups all-purpose flour
   _ cups sugar
   _ teaspoon salt
   _ teaspoon baking powder
   ___ teaspoon baking soda
   _ cup buttermilk *
   _ cup butter or margarine, softened
   2 teaspoons vanilla extract or rum extract
   
   BUTTER SAUCE
   ___ cup sugar
   ___ cup butter or margarine
   _ tablespoons water
   1 to 2 teaspoons vanilla extract or rum extract
   
   GARNISH
   _ to 3 teaspoons powdered sugar


Heat oven to 325°F. Generously grease and lightly flour 12-cup Bundt pan or 10-inch tube pan. In large bowl, combine all cake ingredients; blend at low speed until
moistened. Beat 3 minutes at medium speed. Pour batter into greased and floured pan.

Bake at 325°F. for 55 to 70 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.

In small saucepan, combine all sauce ingredients; cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until butter melts. DO NOT BOIL. Using long-tined fork, pierce cake 10 to 12 times. Slowly pour hot sauce over warm cake. Let stand 5 to 10 minutes or until sauce is absorbed. Invert cake onto serving plate. Just before serving, sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve with whipped cream, if desired.

*TIP: To substitute for buttermilk, use 1 tablespoon vinegar or lemon juice plus milk to make 1 cup.

HIGH ALTITUDE - Above 3,500 feet: Decrease sugar in cake to 1 3/4 cups; increase buttermilk to 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons. Bake at 350°F. for 60 to 70 minutes.
