I made this cake just to make a cake and it was a hit with my co-workers and my daughters friends. I even have some co-workers willing to pay me to make this cake for them for the holidays.I read all the reviews and made a few changes. i really didn't care for the cake flour so next time I will use all purpose flour. I added an extra stick of butter and 2 tspns of pure almond extract and 1 tspn of pure vanilla extract. It was also done in 60 minutes. I must admit it was very good...I will use this recipe again.

So incredible! I made this for Thanksgiving to use for strawberry shortcake. I'd never made this or any pound cake before, but I just followed the recipe exactly and it came out perfect. It's so dense and buttery and moist. My father-in-law said it was a new classic for our holidays! Thanks for this recipe!

Delicious, dense, moist cake..doe not take much to satisfy but it was gobbled up at Thanksgiving. I did add a bit more vanilla and 1 tbl of orange to the egg and sugar mix. I poured into two 8 x 8 pans for 30 minutes. I also made the icing with 3 sticks of butter, 1 tbl of orange and 2 cups of powder sugar. I split the icing between the cakes, layered them and covered the top with 1 cup of blueberries.

I thought it turned out great. I followed the advice of adding 2 tsp of vanilla, and butter/cream cheese at room temp. It took a little over an hour and a half to cook, and turned out so pretty. The texture is amazing and the taste is wonderful. For a pretty finish I drizzled powdered sugar frosting over the top.

I thought this cake was okay. The people I made it for did not give me rave reviews so I think that it was just so-so.

I thought this was very good. I followed other reviewers tips and made sure my cream cheese, eggs and butter were at room temperature. I tried the "cold oven" and it seemed to work out well.I also used the cake flour (Swans) and used two teaspoons of vanilla extract. Wait a day before eating to get the full flavor affect.

YUM! This is a very dense and flavorful buttery pound cake. I didn't read the directions correctly and beat the sugar and butter and then added the cream cheese. I beat in three eggs at a time. It still turned out perfect. I added an extra teaspoon of vanilla. This would be good for carving and rounding top edges, frosting with buttercream and topping with fondont. Froze well. I made another cake using a chrysanthemum bundt pan. This recipe is too much for this pan...fill the bundt pan with a 1.5 inch space from the top edge. Bake at 325F for 1 hr. 20 minutes. Decrease heat to 275F and bake another 10 minutes. Soooooo goood...like velvet.

Great pound cake. I made this for my grandson's birthday. I used a 3-D Thomas Train pan that required a dense cake for the "train" to stand up and this was it. Moist and tasty. Will make again in another pan.

I wish I could give it 6 stars!! I tried many recipes, William Sonoma etc, but they all needed something. This was perfect. I added abit more vanilla but that was my preference.

One star for the taste. Sadly, in order for this pound cake to be fully baked inside, the outside takes a beating by becoming too crisp for a pound cake. The crisp outside does not make for cutting smooth, clean slices. Sorry to say, I will not be saving this recipe. I truly don't understand the great reviews it did get.

Really really great!! I added maybe an extra half teaspoon of vanilla. After about 45 minutes at 325 I was worried that it was getting too brown, so I dropped it down to 300. Total baking time was about 1 hour 10 minutes and perfect brown crust. Too afraid to try it in the cold oven but maybe next time. Thanks for the recipe!

I was a little disappointed in this cake after reading all the positive reviews. I made this cake and followed the instructions to the letter. I checked it after 1 hour and it wasn't done so I let it go the last 20 minutes. The whole bottom of the cake burned. I cut off the burned part and ate the rest with ice cream. It had okay flavor but nothing spectacular. I will still be searching for the perfect pound cake.

This is exactly my personal recipe handed down for generations in my family. To really add some flavor, substitute vanilla butter nut for the vanilla extract. Also, to make a lighter colored cake, I cut the temp to 300 degrees and cook for a longer period. To lighten the recipe, I've used lowfat margarine, eggbeaters, and lowfat cream cheese. It only changed the texture to a more spongy feel--but still as tasty and appreciated by the women in my office. The trick to making a great cake is beating in air by alternating 1/2 cup flour to 1 egg--beating after each flour and each egg addition. It has lots of starts and stops; but, it is so worth it!! This is my personal favorite cake recipe as it so versatile!
