Ingredients

3 cups white sugar
2 cups lard
4 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups buttermilk
8 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons baking powder
3/4 tablespoon baking soda

In a large bowl, cream together the sugar and lard until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time then stir in the vanilla and buttermilk. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; blend into the creamed mixture. Cover dough and chill for at least 2 hours.
