1 cup white sugar
¼ cup solid vegetable shortening (such as Crisco®)
2 eggs

ALMOND MARASCHINO CHERRY NUT BREAD

I found this on Pinterest under a pound cake but renamed it to a bread. That way I can make two and freeze one or make a pan of mini breads for giving as gifts. This is yummy and we put butter on the slices with our coffee. You may use a bundt pan if you want to.

Time 1h20m

Yield 2 breads

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup butter (softened)
2 1/4 cups white sugar
6 eggs (added one at a time)
3 cups sifted flour (either cake or regular flour...I used regular)
1/2 teaspoon salt (scant if you use salted butter)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon almond extract
3/4 cup maraschino cherry (packed and chopped)
3/4 cup walnuts (chopped) or 3/4 cup pecans (chopped)
glaze
2 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons butter (melted)
1 -2 teaspoon milk, to make the glaze the consistency you want to drizzle

Steps:

  • BREAD.
  • Cream butter--add sugar gradually and beat till light and fluffy.
  • Add eggs, one at a time beating after each.
  • Sift flour, salt, and soda and add alternately with the sour cream.
  • Add flavorings.
  • Chop the cherries; cover them with a paper towel and press a little to absorb some of the juice so the batter won't be red; chop the walnuts.
  • Add the cherries and walnuts by hand to the batter.
  • Grease the pans with butter and then spray with cooking spray.
  • Put batter into two loaf pans, or into a bundt pan if you want a cake.
  • Bake at 350 degrees -- loaf pans for about 1 hours and a bundt pan for about 1 hour and 20 minutes or till done -- watch carefully as I don't like them to burn.
  • Cool in pans for about 10 minutes and then remove and cool on rack.
  • GLAZE.
  • Mix till nice and smooth and drizzle over bread if you choose to.
