It took me about an hour to find a recipe for the simple loaf pound cakes. I got to make this the other night and it is soooooo yummy.
3/4 c. salted butter, softened
3/4 c. sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract
3 eggs
1 1/4 c. flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
Preheat oven 325 degrees.
Cream butter and sugar; add vanilla extract and eggs. Mix remaining ingredients into wet mixture. Coat bread pan lightly with oil or unsalted butter. Bake on 325 for approx. 50 to 60 minutes. Pound cake will have a nice golden top.
