  • 1 cup sugar
  • 4  cups flour
  • 6 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/8 tsp. salt
  • 1 TBS. butter
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 cups milk

Put orange peel in saucepan, add water to cover and boil till tender.  Add sugar and boil to medium syrup then cool.  Sift together dry ingredients.  Cream butter, ¾ cup sugar, eggs.  Add milk alternately with dry ingredients to creamed mixture.  Beat with mixer at medium speed for 4 minutes.  Remove from mixer and add cooled orange peel and syrup.  Beat by hand at least 1 minute until well mixed.  Put into 2 greased loaf pans.
