Pumpkin Pound Cake Recipe

Directions:

1. In a bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, soda, salt, cloves and pie spice.
2. In a small bowl, combine pumpkin and rum extract. Add dry ingredients to creamed mixture alternately with pumpkin mixture. Pour into a greased and floured 12-cup fluted tube pan.
3. Bake at 325° for 80-90 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack to cool completely. Dust with confectioners' sugar. Yield: 12-16 servings.
