How divine is this? At first, it puzzled me and then I figured it out. A scripture cake is a fun, bible learning way to make a cake. Each ingredient can be found in the bible verse listed in the recipe. A good way to spend a Sunday with the kids!
Scripture Cake
by Eleanor Tollefsen
1/2 cup Judges 5:25 last clause
2 cups Jeremiah 6:20
2 TB I Samuel 14:25
6 Jeremiah 17:11
1 cup I Kings 4:22
2 tsp Amos 4:5
II Chronicles 9:9 to taste
1 tsp Leviticus 2:13
1/2 cup Judges 4:19 last clause
2 cups Nahum 3:12
2 cups Numbers 17:8
2 cups I Samuel 30:12
Beat the Judges, Jeremiah and I Samuel until light. Beat the 6 Jeremiah yolks and add. Add Kings, Amos, Chronicles and Leviticus alternately with Judges. Fold in Nahum, Numbers and Samuel then add the six Jeremiah whites beaten stiff. Bake two hours in greased 10″ tube pan at 300F. Makes 28 servings. This is delicious.
Be careful if attempting this – the directions reference Samuel twice, since it appears in the ingredient list twice (but for different things). I know this would be too confusing for me to make :-)
My mother will be upset to learn that I don’t own a bible so I can’t even look these up. I had many years of bible school as a tyke but I don’t remember a book of the bible named ‘Nahum’ … it just doesn’t ring a bell with me.
