This went on the breakfast table for company this morning. It was very well received and I doubt that there will be any left tomorrow. The recipe worked very well and delivered a very nice pound cake with a very good texture (it even toasted rather well). I used the butter flavored Crisco and that with the 5 eggs gave a lovely soft yellow color. Easy to put together, I made it last night after dinner and it was perfect this morning.
