      Excellent pound cake with moist, dense crumb. I served it with fresh strawberries, but this cake is so versatile it could be served with just about anything. It can even stand on it's own with that morning cup of coffee. A definite keeper!

      I used this recipe for a 6 cup cake mold that had some very intricate details. I noticed that it had a fairly high amount of liquid in it compard to most pound cakes and I was hoping that it would pour. It did perfectly. As an added bonus, the dairy component made the cake brown quicly and perfectly, aiding in an EASY release from it's pan. The finished product was dense, but not overly so, and retained a buttery taste even though it contains about half as much as similar recipes. You have a real winner here! THANKS NEZZ

      Rich, dense, moist, yet not heavy. All those who tried this pound cake said "wow" and gave it five stars, including me. A wonderful, easy "keeper" recipe. This is a "little black dress" of cakes: it will go with anything and you can take it anywhere!

      This recipe was excellent!! The texture of the cake was somewhat dense as a pound cake should be and it had a light buttery flavor. I used it to make a cherry trifle by layering the cake with vanilla pudding, cherry pie filling, and cool whip. Made a great light dessert and I froze the leftover cake for future use. Definitely a keeper recipe.!!!

      This pound cake was perfection. The texture was slightly firm and the rich vanilla flavor was yummy. I made a fresh peach topping and then topped that with real sweetened whipped cream. I can think of so many ways to enjoy it. Thanks MizzNezz.

      Great recipe! I made it to serve with chocolate fondue. Cooked in a 9 x 13 pan and cut into fingers and toasted until brown in the oven. Nice texture and not too sweet. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is I'd probably add another teaspoon of vanilla next time. Thanks!

      Wonderful Cake. I've made this thrice now and it's never failed me. The last time I made it was for my son's birthday and topped it with chocolate sauce!! Yummmmmm. Thank you MizzNezz :)

      This was a very light pound cake. Delicious, not too sweet. My suggestion is...get some heavy whipping cream...whip it till it's stiff, add sliced mangos or peaches, strawberries, bananas or fruit of your choice...mmmmmmm

      Not bad but there are better recipes on this site. My personal favorite is Amanda's Cheese Pound Cake Amanda's Cheese Pound Cake.

      This was the first time I'd ever made a pound cake, and I have to say that this recipe turned out very well for me. Instead of cooking one cake however, I divided the batter into individual cake pans, which obviously lessened the cooking time, but it was still all good. My bf had never had pound cake before and he wolfed down one cake in one sitting- so I guess that's a good sign ;-)

      I didn't have a tube pan, so used a regular loaf pan. This was a mistake. This turned out very hard on the top, and still googy in the centre. The flavour is very good, and went well with coffee and fruit.

      This was a little eggy-tasting to me, but it was still good and quite moist. I may try this again with fewer eggs.

      This cake is beautiful in presentation and easy to make. I am in search for THE pound cake, one that reminds me of my Grandma's country church potlucks. Unfortunately, this is not the flavor I am looking for. But, this is a very good cake, nothing is wrong with it! And until I find THE pound cake, I will make this one. Thanks for sharing.

      This cake is absolutely gorgeous to my tastebuds! And everyone elses :D I made it as a birthday cake for my DH. I had to search for a specific cake because I had limited ingredients, and this was just perfect. Thank you for a great recipe!

      Thank you so much for this recipe! It was just what I was looking for. I used two 9 inch rounds, greased and floured. No problems! My tip to new chefs - make sure you mix on high for the whole 5 mins. The results are amazing and this cake is soooo worth it!! All the best, Mizz!

      Definitely a keeper in my house. When I turned the bundt pan upside down the cake slid right out and looked amazing. In the past all the recipes I have tried were always too sweet for my taste, but yours was just right. I tend to like my pound cakes to have more of a butter taste to them, but either way this cake was a hit in my house! Thank you for posting your recipe. Italianmomof2
