This was my Nana's pound cake recipe. If we were lucky there would be some left to have toasted with butter.

Time 1h35m

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 c sugar
2 stick butter
1/4 c vegetable shortening
4 eggs
1 c milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp almond extract
3 c cake flour unsifted

Steps:

  • 1. Cream butter and shortening. Add sugar and cream together. Add eggs one at a time. Mix thoroughly after each egg. Add milk, flour and flavorings. Mix together.
  • 2. Set oven at 300 degrees, do not preheat oven. Bake 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes
  • 3. You can substitute margine for butter but tastes better with real butter.
  • 4. My daughter and Nana always use a bunt pan. A couple of loaf pans would work also.
