After we all married and moved away from home, my Mother wanted to make a smaller version of her pound cake so she and Daddy could still enjoy it without over indulging or wasting part of the cake. This smaller portion is perfect!
Ingredients:
1/2 cup shortening
1 1/2 cups sugar
3/4 teaspoon vanilla
3 eggs
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup buttermilk
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, beat shortening and sugar until smooth.
2. Add vanilla.
3. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition.
4. In another bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, and salt.
5. Alternately add flour mixture and buttermilk, a little at a time into shortening mixture until blended.
6. Pour into a greased and flour 9 x 5 inch loaf pan.
7. Bake at 325 degrees for 1 hour.
