Most Amazing Pound Cake


Pound cake is one of the most amazing cakes. There's no need for frosting, as it is a cake that stands by itself. A little crisp on the outside and moist on the inside. Delish!











Ingredients

  • 2 cups of all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp of baking powder
  • a pinch of salt
  • 2 cups of powdered sugar
  • 2 sticks of butter, softened
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp of lemon extract
  • cup of milk


Directions
Preheat oven to 350° degrees.
Grease and lightly flour a 9"x 5" loaf pan and set aside. 

In a medium size bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt, then set aside.

In a large bowl, add the butter and powdered sugar and mix with a hand blender until smooth and creamy. Add the eggs, vanilla extract, and lemon extract to the mixture and mix until well blended. Stir in the milk. Add the flour mixture and stir until the mixture is well blended and smooth. 

Transfer the mixture to the prepared loaf pan and cook for 1 hour and 15 minutes or until a fork inserted into the center comes out clean. 

Remove from the oven and let the cake cool for approximately 30 minutes. 

Enjoy with a cup of tea or coffee, or with your favorite ice cream. Makes 8 - 10 servings.
