More Please Pound Cake

Any time of year is a great time for Pound Cake. Serve with fruit in season or go it alone with a bit of powdered sugar. A little dollop or a big dollop of whipped cream is great too. Rich, moist and the perfect texture … One cake you’ll make over and over for family and friends.

Wrap it up and give it as a gift!

Measure the dry ingredients in a separate bowl and whisk.
