INSTRUCTIONS
Mix first three ingredients together and blend well. To this add the
spices, hot sauce and baking powder - blend well. Add the flour and then
fold in the rest of the stuff. This makes a pretty thick batter.
Grease and flour a ring mold. Pour in batter and bake at 400 degrees
Farenheight for about an hour or until set. Do not overbake.
(Purists can put the batter in a pudding mold and boil it for 3 hours!)
Cake keeps well if wrapped and stored in a cool place. I like to wrap it in
cheesecloth soaked in cream sherry and then wrap in aluminum foil but this
can be omitted.
