I’ve tried oodles of Southern cake recipes over the years and nothing beats this pound cake in my opinion. The simple flavor of a clbackic pound cake is hard to beat. A combination of butter, cream cheese, and superfine sugar gives this cake a wonderful texture.
Ingred*ents
- 2 cups self-rising flour
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups sugar
