NANA'S SOUTHERN POUND CAKE

This is my mother's famous pound cake recipe. I have posted it so that my brother and sisters can access it at any time. She used to make this for all the church and school bazaars and it was the first to go. I made it for my school bazaar and got many requests for the recipe. My mother is a southern cook from those bygone years where everyone knew by heart the recipe for a good pound cake. This is hers.

BEST SOUTHERN POUND CAKE

In my husband's small South Carolina home town, decisions about whether to attend a local wedding were often made according to whether "Miss Lorene" was making the cake for the occasion. This is her version of the traditional Southern pound cake. Its texture is truly divine and quite dense. For some occasions, it is iced with 7 minute frosting. You can also use your favorite glaze. Makes nice cupcakes as well.

Remove from pan; cool completely on wire rack.
