If you know pound cake, you know this is a good one! It was perfect. Dense, moist, and buttery. I served it with strawberries and whipped cream. It is wonderful toasted with butter the next day. I wouldn't change a thing.

Made this cake for the guys at the firehouse and they said it was "good" but that it needed "something". I agree: I added 2 tsp of vanilla as opposed to 1 but that was the only change I made. I served it warm, so maybe cooling it off would give it a better mouth feel. I served it plain, so next time I will try it wiht blueberry compote or strawberries. Thanks for the decadent recipe!

Awsome recipe!!! Incredible pound cake that my whole family loved. Served it at Christmas after baking it in a tube pan. I then sliced it in half horizontally and iced it with a lime cream cheese frosting (instead of a typical lemon cc frosting). My father who loves food (and never gains a pound like myself) said it was the best tasting dessert there not to mention the best pound cake he's ever had. First pound cake that didn't give me heartburn Way to go Jeff!!! Your daughter made a wonderful discovery!
