I Live With Hungry People,

so, I make pound cake.

This is the easiest cake EVER. If you like pound cake, you will love this. Trust me.

I’m making it tomorrow. The beauty is that it’ll work for breakfast too.

Pound Cake

3 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/4 cups sugar
3 sticks butter, softened
1/2 C + 1T. milk
5 large eggs
2 t. flavoring of choice (vanilla, almond, lemon — or a mixture)

Preheat your oven to 325. Butter and flour a tube or Bundt pan. Place the ingredients in your standing mixer bowl in the order they are listed. (Note: It is really necessary that you make this in a standing mixer.) Beat at low speed 1 minute. Scrape down sides. Beat at medium speed for 2 minutes. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top of the batter. Bake at 325 for 1 hour and 30 minutes or until a tester comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes on a rack. Invert the cake on to the rack and remove the pan. Cool it completely.

This is great with ice cream or a berry sauce.

Happy Friday, y’all!
