• 3/4 buttermilk or sour milk (What to do if you don't have either of these?)
• 1/2 cup shortening
• 1 teaspoon vanilla

2. Let the eggs to stand about 30 mins
3. Pre-heat the oven at 350degres F
4. In a large mixing bowl mix the dry ingredients
5. In a medium mixing bown mix the we ingredients
6. Mix the dry and wet ingredients in a mixer at low speed for about 10 mins
7. Pour the mix into the baking pan, place in the middle rack of the oven and set the timer for 30mins
8. If you have one of those non-convection ovens, turn the pan 180 degrees after 15 minutes to ensure the cake bakes evenly
9. Use a toothpick to check if the cake is evenly baked, it it comes out wet, give it a few more minutes
10. Cool for about 30 mins and serve
