Pound Cake

Written by on in Cakes, Desserts

This is a pound cake that I just can’t stop eating. Thank goodness it is baked in a double sized loaf pan because if it wasn’t, I’d have to hide it in my closet to keep it all to myself. It’s firm yet moist and oh so buttery. Thanks Pat for the best pound cake recipe EVER!!
