Scripture Cake Recipe

A lot of people have been asking for this recipe so here it is:

It is from the Essential Mormon Cookbook by Julie Badger Jensen ( my very favorite cookbook!)

Some of the scriptures are a little bit of a stretch, but most of them contain the exact ingredient. So we put out all the ingredients ob the table and had the kids listen to each scripture and decide which ingredient came next.

1 cup Judges 5:25 (butter)
1/2 cup Exodus 27:20 (olive oil)
2 cups Proverbs 16:24 (Sugar)
2 tablespoons 1 Samuel 14:25 (honey)
3 Isaiah 10:14 (eggs)
1/4 cup Joshua 5:6 (milk)
2 cups 1 Kings 4:22 (white Flour)
1 cup D&C 89:14 (whole wheat flour)
1 teaspoon Leviticus 2:13 (salt)
1 teaspoon Amos 4:5 (baking soda)
2 teaspoons Exodus 30:23 (cinnamon)
3 cups Proverbs 25:11 (apples, peeled and grated)
1 cup Genesis 43:11 (chopped pecans or walnuts)

Cream butter, oil and sugar. Add eggs and milk, beat until creamy. Mix dry ingredients together. Combine wet with dry and bake in a 9x13 at 350 degrees for 50 minutes.
