Pecan Cake
- 2 sticks Butter, Softened
- 2 cups Sugar
- 6 whole Eggs
- 1/2 cups Maker's Mark Whiskey
- 1/4 cups Molasses
- 1-1/2 pound Cut-up Dates
- 1-1/2 pound Chopped Pecans
- 3-1/2 cups Flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1/2 teaspoons Baking Soda
- 2 teaspoons Nutmeg
- Cream the butter and sugar. Stir in the eggs. Add whiskey and molasses. Add dates and pecans. Sift all dry ingredients 3 or 4 times. Add to the other ingredients in stages. At this point, it gets harder to stir.
- Use spray oil on 8 baby loaf pans, then line with brown paper coated in spray oil. Divide batter into the 8 pans. Bake for 1 hour at 275 degrees. Put a pan of water on the shelf below the cakes during baking.
- Let cool. Remove brown papers. These can be frozen individually in quart-sized zipper bags. Enjoy!
