Nana's Pound Cake


This is one of the first things I learned to make from scratch. Nothing made me more proud than when Nana said it was as good as hers.

  • 3 sticks of butter
  • 3 cups of sugar (sifted)
  • 5 eggs
  • 3 cups of plain flour (sifted)
  • 1 Cup of Milk
  • 1 teaspoon of Lemon extract
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon of baking powder
  • Cream together butter and sugar 

  1. Add eggs one at a time to mixture while mixing.
  2. Continue to mix adding flour and milk and alternating flour with milk.
  3. Add flavoring and lastly add baking powder
  4. Bake at 325 for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until done.

  1. Is that picture one of your pound cakes or did you steal it from Martha Stewart online?
