This is my mother's famous pound cake recipe. She used to make this for all the church and school bazaars and it was the first to go. I made it for my school bazaar and got many requests for the recipe. My mother is a southern cook from those bygone years where everyone knew by heart the recipe for a good pound cake. This is hers. Ingredients:
3/4 lb butter (no substitute) |
1 (16 ounce) box confectioners' sugar |
6 eggs |
3 cups all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
Directions:
1. Cream butter and sugar.
2. Add eggs one at a time, beat well after each addition.
3. Add flour, salt and vanilla.
4. Bake in tube pan at 300 degrees for 1 hour and 20 minutes.
