This is one of my favorite cake recipes. It's almost like a pound cake and tastes best 1 to 2 days after you bake it.
7-Up Cake
1 1/2 cups margarine
3 cups sugar
5 eggs
3 cups flour
2 tablespoons lemon extract
3/4 cup 7-up or Sprite
Cream sugar and shortening and beat until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, and beat well. Add flour. Beat in lemon extract and 7-Up. Pour batter into well-floured bundt pan. Bake at 325 degrees for 1 1/4 hours or until toothpick inserted comes out clean. Once cooled, remove from pan and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
