Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Cream the butter.
  2. Add a pound of eggs (typically 8 or 9 eggs), the sifted sugar, almond flavoring, and lemon juice.
  3. Cream until smooth.
  4. My Grandmother's recipe said to beat for 1/2 hour.
  5. If you are using an electric mixer, adjust accordingly.
  6. Gradually add the flour and mix well.
  7. Pre-heat oven to 300.
  8. Fill a lightly greased form 3/4 of the way.
  9. Loaf pans work well, as do mini-loafs or cup-cakes.
  10. For loafs, check for doneness with knife-test at 90 minutes.
  11. Mini-loafs and cup-cakes will finish sooner.
  12. I like this pound cake plain, or with a light dusting of confectioners' sugar.
  13. Alternately, you can apply a thin coat of icing.
