3 sticks butter
5 eggs
3 c flour
3 c sugar
¾ c 7-Up
2 tsp lemon extract

Cream butter and sugar for 20 minutes, adding 1 egg at a time. Add flour and lemon extract. Fold in 7-Up. Pour into well-greased 9x13 inch pan. Bake at 325 degrees for 1 ½ hours.

{This cake should be called Patience Cake. Takes a lot of patience to cream the butter and sugar for 20 minutes and then the patience to wait for it to bake.}
