Caramel Nut
------------------------------
INGREDIENTS:
2 cups packed brown sugar
2/3 cup white sugar
1 cup butter, softened
4 eggs
2/3 cup milk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup chopped walnuts
-------------------------------
DIRECTIONS:
Sterilize 6 (1 pint) straight sided wide mouth canning jars, lids
and rings by boiling for 10 minutes. Keep the lids and rings in
the hot water until needed. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees
C). Dry jars and let them come to room temperature. Grease insides
of jar well.
In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, soda and
salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream sugars and butter with electric mixer. Add
eggs and mix well. Add milk and vanilla and mix well.
Add flour mixture and blend with a large spoon. Gently fold in nuts.
Place 1 cup batter into each of the greased one pint wide mouth
canning jars. Wipe any batter from rim. Place jars on baking sheet.
Bake at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) for 50 minutes or until toothpick
inserted deep into center of cake comes out clean.
Make sure jar rims are clean. (If they're not, jars will not seal
correctly). While jars are still hot, place lids on jars, and screw
rings on tightly. Jars will seal as they cool. Place the jars on
the counter and listen for them to "ping" as they seal.
If you miss the "ping", wait until they are completely
cool and press on the top of the lid. If it doesn't move at all,
it's sealed.
Keep in refrigerator for prolonged storage.
