Pound cake

 Pound cake

Recipe from vintage card for 1960’s

2 Sticks of butter

1 ½ cups sugar

¼  tsp mace

5 eggs

2 cups self-rising flour

325-degrees 1 hour. Bake is a meatloaf pan

Top with La Cream

No other directions written on the card.

Eggs should be at room temperature and softened butter.

How I would make this. Grease and flour the bread loaf pan well. Preheat oven

Cream butter and sugar and mace. I would add the eggs one at a time and mix well in between each egg. Slowly incorporate the flour ½ cup at a time into the creamed mixture.

Pour cake in to prepared loaf pan. Bake until the toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool in pan for 10 minutes or so then remove from pan and cool on a rack completely.
