Poppy Seed Cake

Poppy Seed Cake

Cake:
3 eggs
1 1/8 cup oil
2 1/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 cup milk
3 cups flour
1 1/2 tsp salt (scant)
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp almond flavor (I'm assuming extract)
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 tsp butter extract
1 1/2 TB poppy seeds

Glaze:
3/4 - 1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 tsp of each: butter extract, almond extract, vanilla extract
Milk

For the cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Grease two regular size loaf pans, or 6 tiny ones.  Beat together oil, eggs, sugar and milk.  Add flour, baking powder and salt.  Add flavoring and poppy seeds, stir until fully incorporated.  Pour into prepared pans and bake 45 minutes, or until toothpick in center comes out clean.  Remove from the pans while still warm and drizzle glaze over each.

For the glaze: Blend together all the ingredients and add enough milk to make thin for glazing.
