GRANNY'S POUND CAKE



Granny's Pound Cake image

This is my Granny's pound cake. One year my dad took one to work with him. All of the men he worked with were asking him if they could buy a cake from Granny. She sold those cakes for $20 each and had to tell my dad she wasn't making any more before they left her alone. That's how she got her Christmas money that year, and it was a very good Christmas. She passed away about 2 years ago, and I thought this recipe was lost. Fortunately my Grandma had it and now I have it. Here it is.

  • Mix milk and flour in alternately.
  • Grease bunt pan and pour in batter.
  • Put your batter in a COLD oven.
  • Bake at 300 degrees for 1 hour and 30 minutes, or till toothpick comes out clean.

GRANDMOTHER'S POUND CAKE



Grandmother's Pound Cake image

The recipe is from Fannie Farmer Cookbook (1972 edition). It is a buttery dense cake. I have been making it for years. My family loves this cake. My daughter is especially fond of the ends. I have made it to serve plain or as an ice cream cake topped with a frozen fruit mixture. You must use an electric mixer to get the batter light and fluffy.
