REAL Pound Cake

I made this for sean and jeffrey 3 weeks ago; youse guys may like it also!

1 stick real butter
1 cup real sugar
3 real eggs
1 tablespoon real vanilla extract
1.5 cups all purpose flour
4 oz. milk

Soften butter in the microwave (about 30 seconds).

Dump all the ingredients into a bowl and mix well (with a mixer or by hand).

Grease a 9 x 5 loaf pan; pour cake batter into pan.

Place pan into COLD oven; oven MUST be cold or the cake WILL FAIL!

Set oven temperature to 325 degrees and bake cake for 1 hour, or until cake tester comes out clean (your oven, your mileage may vary).

Remove cake from pan whilst still warm.

PIG OUT!

(PS - you CAN use imitation ingredients, but WHY on earth would you?  Keepin' it REAL here, yo!)

  1. For the life of me, I cannot bake a cake. I can bake everything else, just not cakes. They always turn into volcanoes.

  4. She doesn't mention it's called pound cake because you gain a pound for every slice you eat.
