Quicker Baked Potato

Try this method for speeding up the potato baking process (for a better texture than those that you microwave). Pre-heat the oven to 400. Place the potato in boiling water for 10 minutes. Bake for 30 minutes. This will cut the cooking time in half.

2 cup flour
1 pint hickory nut, finely chopped
1 single *mixed in:
2 tablespoon flour

Work together butter and sugar until very creamy. Then slowly work in one egg at a time, alternately with 1 Tbsp flour. Work at least 5 minutes to each egg. Continue alternating the flour and eggs until all the eggs have been worked in. Then add the remaining flour and nuts; lastly, add a claret glass of brandy. Bake at 350-F for 1-1/2 hours in a deep dish, well buttered, placing dish on a small stand at bottom of oven. Test before removing from oven by sticking with toothpick. If it comes out sticky, cake is not done; if dry and clean, cake is finished. Source: Pennsylvania Dutch Cook Book - Fine Old Recipes, Culinary Arts Press, 1936.
