Grandma Campbell'S Jelly Cake - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter
3 eggs
2 cups flour
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 (12 ounce) jar apple jelly

Preparation

Melt butter and sugar together.
Add eggs, flour and milk.
The recipes says 1/2 cup milk, but Grandma added\"OR until of batter consistency\" at the bottom.
Then add vanilla.
Bake in 4 greased and floured 9 inch pans at 400 degrees for 15-18 minutes, as the layers should be about 1/2 inch thick when done.
Melt the apple jelly.
Pour 3 ounces of jelly over each layer as they are stacked.
Sometimes I also frost the sides with Vanilla Buttercream Frosting, or serve the cake warm with whipped cream.
