Moravian Sugar Cake
1 cup hot mashed potatoes
1 cup white sugar
3/4 tsp salt
1 package dry yeast
1 cup warm water or scalded milk
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/4 cup lard, melted
2 eggs, beaten
4 cups flour
1/2 cup butter, cold
1 lb light brown sugar
cinnamon to taste (optional)
Combine sugar with potatoes, mashing to dissolve. Dissolve yeast
in the water and add to the potato mixture. Stir in the salt, lard
and eggs. Add flour and mix until smooth. Cover and let rise for
5 or more hours (or overnight).
Spoon batter 1/2" deep into two greased 13x9" cake tins. Let them
rise for an hour, until puffy. Poke indentations 1" apart into the
surface, but not too deep. Put chips of cold butter in the holes,
and push down with some brown sugar (these are called butter holes).
Sprinkle the rest of the brown sugar on the surface, and lightly
with cinnamon. Bake at 350F / 180C for 25 minutes. Let cool in the
tins for 5 minutes before removing.
