Pound Cake - Recipe

I wanted to try out a new pound cake recipe but once I stated to get all the ingredients I found that I was missing one item.
Rats!
I decided to pull out my old recipe that I have used since I was in high school.
It creates a wonderful cake that is perfect with any type of berry and whipped cream; then again you can always eat it by itself.

You will be impressed at how easy it is to make and sure to please.
