Dear Readers,
On July 27, 2010 I wrote a blog about MaMa Gastinger’s wonderful Sunday night dinners. She liked to try different recipes for desserts and this is one I enjoyed very much. MaMa gave me a copy and I still have it on the piece of flowered stationery that it was written. The recipe is dated December 28, 1972.
MaMa G’s Seven-Up Cake
1 small box pineapple or lemon instant pudding
4 eggs
1 box of Lemon Supreme cake mix
3/4 cup cooking oil (not olive)
10 oz. can or bottle of 7-Up
Mix all ingredients together. Beat well. Bake in 9″ x 13″ baking pan at 350 degrees for about 40 minutes or until done.
Icing:
1-1/2 cups white sugar
2 whole eggs
1 stick butter
Cook over low heat, stirring until thick. Cool and the add:
1 cup coconut
1 small can (8 0z.) crushed pineapple, not drained
Punch holes in cake with fork and spread icing on cake.
Enjoy!
Keep smilin’!
