    Vasilopita

    adapted from allrecipes.com

    1 cup butter
    2 cups white sugar
    3 cups all-purpose flour
    6 eggs
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    1 cup warm milk
    ½ teaspoon baking soda
    1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
    ¼ cup blanched slivered almonds
    2 tablespoons white sugar

    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Generously grease a 10-inch round cake pan.

    2. In a medium bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until fluffy. Stir in the flour and mix until the mixture is slightly mealy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Combine the baking powder and milk, add to the egg mixture and mix well. Combine the lemon juice and baking soda and stir into the batter. Pour into the prepared cake pan.

    3. Sprinkle the nuts and sugar over the cake, and bake for about 45-50 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool. Gently cut a small hole in the cake and place a foil-wrapped quarter in the hole.
