BUTTERMILK POUND CAKE
Directions
- Cream butter, gradually add sugar, beating at medium speed of an electric mixer until well blended.
- Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition.
- Combine flour, soda, and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk, beginning and ending with flour mixture.
- Stir in flavorings.
- Pour into greased and floured 10-inch tube pan.
- Bake at 325 degrees F (163 degrees C) for 1 hour.
I used Butternut flavoring instead of lemon this time. Man, did it give it some good flavor and color. I used only a cup and a half of sugar and it was sweet enough. Then I put it into 2 loaf pans, 8 1/2 X 4 1/2 instead of a tube pan. They baked up in one hour and 5 minutes a 325 degrees.
The vanilla and butternut flavorings are sooooo good. Next time I might used some orange vest and juice to make it an orange pound cake.

Hahahahaha….I just read on another post that you are a pound cake lover. ME TOO!!! I make all kinds of pound cakes and give them to anyone that even looks at me caddy-wonkered! LOL I love baking them but David and I can't eat them all. My neighbors always benefit from my baking sprees and love it.
This cake turned out sooooo good! Very moist, not heavy at all. I set the timer for 1 hour and then looked at it to see if it needed more time. They needed just that 5 more minutes and were gently pulling away from the sides so I took them out.
I have made the Orange Pound Cake that the barefoot contessa makes from the Food Network….it is to die for! 3 tablespoons of luscious orange zest and fresh orange juice….oh man…pure heaven!
I'm so glad you saw this recipe…I thought it was just too funny when I saw your posting of needing pound cake and would NOT do without! LOL

I feel sorry for you not being able to enjoy a slice tho! How can you stand it? Or can you eat just 1 piece then give it away?

Oh I eat some of it!!! There is just no way that I could NOT eat it! My beloved would eat the whole thing if he could…LOL David rations it out and makes it last.
I usually make 2 of everything, keep one and give the other away. My neighbors are very elderly and can't make things like breads and cakes anymore. Probably because I keep them supplied! They are great little neighbors though and are dear to me.

I'm going back through the older posts, and found this one.
I've got a recipe for Cream Cheese Pound Cake that I make/give away every year.
LOVE IT. It came from one of the Southern Living annuals–the Nov 95 section, I believe. It got the highest rating possible for a recipe, from their kitchens.
Yes. It is *that* good.
DH doesn't care for pound cake, and even with five children, we cannot–should not!–eat that much cake. So I make them and give them away.
Of course, usually after a marathon baking session, I don't *want* any, either. LOL. 12 of those babies in one day, is waaaaaayyy too much pound cake on the senses!
