Bremerton, Washington

I don't know if I would call this cream cheese pound cake although its a pretty good pound cake. I couldn't really taste the cream cheese in it...When it says a heavy and dense pound cake they are not lying...This thing weighed a ton. Good flavor, although I ended up with some type of strange crunchy crust on the top, not sure where that came from. I scraped it off and the actual cake was somewhat moist although not as much as I thought it would be. I did add additional vanilla along with some lemon and almond extract. I don't think I'll make this again. It was a lot of work for something not quite as moist as I wanted it...

I wasn't too impressed with the way this bread turned out, so next time I will use the suggestions of "MommyfromSeattle." She used all brown sugar, doubled the spices (I already did that and still think it needs more) and throw in some diced apples. I think that should do the trick. Raisins and walnuts would be a nice touch as well.

Excellent! I can't wait to make another loaf.
