| How To Cook: |
|
|
1. Preheat the oven to 350°. With a pastry brush or paper towel coat the bottom and sides of an 8-inch round cake pan evenly with 1 tablespoon of the softened butter. Set the pan aside.
|
2. Sift the flour, baking powder and salt together into a small bowl and set aside. In a large bowl, cream the ¼ pound of softened butter and the sugar together by mashing and beating them against the sides of the bowl with a spoon until they are light and fluffy.
|
3. Beat in the caraway seeds and then the egg. Add the flour mixture, ½ cup at a time, beating well after each addition. When the mixture is smooth, beat in the milk and pour the batter into the prepared pan.
|
4. Smooth the top with a spatula and bake in the middle of the oven for 45 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake rest for 5 minutes in the pan, turn it out on a cake rack, and cool completely.
