Scripture Cake

My wife sent me this today and thought, as it was the holiday season to share it with you.

This handwritten recipe apparently fell out of the back of an old book. The ingredients are in the form of biblical references, indicated by chapter and verse. Of course, bicarbonate of soda, for example, isn't actually in the bible, so you'll have to be a bit creative in your interpretations

Scripture Cake
4.5 cups I Kings Chapter 4, verse 22
1.5 cups Judges Ch 5, 25
2 cups Jeremiah 6, 20
2 cups I Samuel 30, 12
2 cups Nahum 3, 12
1 cup Numbers 17, 8
2x 15ml I Samuel 14, 25
Season to taste with II Chronicle 9, 9
6x 15ml Jeremiah 17, 11
A pinch of Leviticus 2, 13
Half cup Judges 4, 19
2x 15ml Amos 4, 5
Add citron and follow Solomon's advice for making a good boy Proverbs, Chapter 23, Verse 14, and you have a good cake.

That is cool! Someone took a lot of time to figure that one out (and make sure it was edible).
