Simple recipe-given to me by a friend.

Watkins Famous Five Flavored Cake

Cream butter, shortening and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, which have been beaten until lemon colored. Combine flour and baking powder and add to creamed mixture alternately with milk. Stir in flavorings. Spoon mixture into prepared 10" tube pan (Bundt pan must be 10" or hold 12 cups; an angle food pan may also be used) and bake at 325 for 1 1/2 hours or until cake tests done. Add glaze if desired. Cool in pan about 10 minutes before turning out.

(If you are in a hurry, use a cake mix and add the extracts)
