Grandmother Ballard'S Pound Cake

• 2 sticks (1 cup) margarine, room temperature
• 1/2 cup solid shortening
• 3 cups sugar
• 5 large eggs
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 cup milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon lemon flavoring
• Baker's Joy

1. 1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. In a mixing bowl, cream butter & shortening. Add sugar, beating until well-mixed. Add eggs one at a time.
2. 2. Sift flour & baking powder then add alternately with milk, mixing thoroughly. Add flavorings.
3. 3. Pour into large bundt pan (preferably one without the funny shapes - we go for a smooth, round tube pan in my family) that has been sprayed with Baker's Joy. (Alternately, you can rub pan with butter & coat with flour. But Baker's Joy seems to work best.)
4. 4. Bake for 1 hour & 15-20 minutes at 325 degrees F.
