This recipe came from Cooking for 2.
It's just perfect. The perfect size, the perfect taste, the perfect dessert!
It was quick to whip up and made the whole house smell wonderful. We had the hardest time waiting for it to cool, it smelled so good.
But we did. And it was worth the wait. I like mine plain...just the buttery taste..nothing else. The rich, brown, buttery crust is the best part.
I ate that part last!
Brent on the other hand, likes to smother his with berries and cream. Lucky for him that I still had some frozen strawberries in my freezer that I had picked this summer!

3/4 c. sugar
1 egg
1/4 tsp. vanilla
3/4 c. flour

There's nothing better than a buttery pound cake! My husband has to have the berries and cream too!
I like very much the recipes that you don't have to eat a sweet until you are sick of it. This looks like the perfect pound cake, just enough to make you want desperately some more.
Looks delicious, Laurie! I love pound cakes, and this would be perfect with a cup of coffee - at breakfast or for an afternoon pick-me-up!
looks sooo good. Is it 1/4 c vanilla extract?
Thanks.
