Lovely Luxury Cake
This is sent by "Monica" whom I know as an excellent cook. She says, "It is a little extravagant but good, and good food-value, and don’t the men’s eyes shine when you give them a piece! Tell the girls to ask their mothers to make it for a special boy friend they are fond of! Much better than a ‘come hither’ with the eyes!"-Half a pound of butter, % Ib. sugar, pinch salt. Beat these and add 4 eggs, one at a time, 4% Ib. sultanas and 4% lb. mixed peel are added, then % Ib. ground almonds; 4 oz. of flour if eggs are small but 6 oz. if they are large or medium. Bake in slow oven for 24% hours. No baking powder and please don’t spoil it with icing.
