One of the best pound cake recipes I've encountered by far. I followed other users' suggestions and beat the butter and sugar for 5 minutes and 1 minute after each addition of egg. I didn't have the ground mace on hand so I omitted it and see no reason to use it next time. I did have a bit of overflow that I didn't mind because it was a perfect crust.
