Love it! The cup of ground pecans in place of the flour is a must do. I didn't make the glaze because I ran out of time before a birthday party, but more people ate this instead of the frosted cake.

Awesome pound cake! I did use the cup of ground pecans in lieu of one cup of flour and it turned out perfect! Love the lemon glaze over the top!!!!! I recommend this recipe highly!

4 stars for flavor but came out drier than other pound cakes I've made and I only left it in the oven for 65 min. Dissapointed with the dryness but will hold up well with strawberries and ice cream.

My end result was good AFTER several adjustments, hence the 3 stars. I decreased the amount of sugar, increased the amount of vanilla, added pecans to the cake and on top and didn't overbake it. I used another recipe for the icing as I don't like OJ added to my icing. I cut the recipe in half because I was only serving 4 people. Good, but NOT great recipe.

Very dense and heavy cake !!!Like other reviews, I reduced the sugar to 1 1/2 cups and it was sweet enough.I omited the glaze as I do not like glazes on cakes. I baked the cake at 325 for 60 -70 min . Next time I would reduce the eggs to 3 and reduce the butter to 1/2 cup as I really don't like dense cakes. As is this cake would be a good base for a trifle.
