<p>My mom’s grandmother made wonderful poundcake! Her recipe is the best I’ve found.</p>
|

<h2>Ingredients</h2>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>3 cups sugar</li>
|
||
<li>1/2 cup shortening</li>
|
||
<li>2 sticks oleo</li>
|
||
<li>1 1/4 cups milk</li>
|
||
<li>1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla</li>
|
||
<li>5 eggs</li>
|
||
<li>3 cups flour</li>
|
||
<li>1/2 teaspoon salt</li>
|
||
<li>1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<h2>Directions</h2>
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<li>Cream the sugar, shortening, and oleo.</li>
|
||
<li>Combine the milk and vanilla.</li>
|
||
<li>Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.</li>

<li>Add the dry ingredients alternately with the milk mixture.</li>
|
||
<li>Pour into a greased and floured bunt cake pan.</li>
|
||
</ol>
|
||
<p>Bake it at 350°F for about 60 to 75 minutes in a standard Bundt pan.
|
||
Start checking at 55 minutes. It is done when:
|
||
A toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
|
||
The top springs back lightly when touched.
|
||
The cake begins pulling slightly away from the sides of the pan.
|
||
If the top starts browning too much before the middle in done, lay a piece of foil over the top.</p>
|
||
<p>Let it cool in the pan for 10 to 15 minutes, then turn it onto a cooling rack.</p>
