Directions:Preheat oven to 350º. Spray 9 X 13 pan with non-stick cooking spray. In a small saucepan over low heat, combine butter and half & half.

To eggs and sugar, add warmed butter mixture; beat until thoroughly combined. Add vanilla and mix again. In a separate bowl, add the dry ingredients together; blend. Add flour mixture to the other combined ingredients. Blend well. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean and cake springs back when touched in the center. Cool.

Notes: Anybody else remember that this was one of Grandma Hansen's Sunday cakes? I've looked for the recipe for awhile, and suddenly there's a plethora of them available. This cake recipe sounds the closest to hers. The frosting was a from a separate recipe and I doubled it, like I had the cake. You might not need that much frosting unless you are making a layer cake.
