I have one question. Do you actually prepare these recipes before you post them? I notice so many mistakes and misprints and changes to several of them. When you apologize and mention that your fixing a recipe, have you physically prepared it and ate it yourselves before several folks found discrepancies, then changed it?

This recipe has obvious mistakes in the list of ingredients and in the instructions. I hope inexperienced bakers aren't tempted to waste their time and resources on it.

There is something very wrong with this recipe. I tried it and wasted time and a pound of butter and what is this a pound of flour? I looked up the equivalent of that and it was 4 CUPS of flour. This in addition to a cup of cake flour for 1 loaf pan. No way!!! I have baked cake for a long time and I should have know better to go on with this recipe, especially when making pound cake. Terrible baking experience!

1 lb. of flour and then 1 cup? No mention of when to add butter - presume to mix with sugar. 1/4 sugar does not seem to be enough. Please clarify.

Geeze, take a deep breath! Anyone who has ever made a pound cake before knows to cream the sugar and butter. The flour is added in step 3 so you can assume it isn't supposed to be added in step one. Now go bake your cake! :-) It's the holiday's give people a break!

This recipe does not sound right... 1 pound of flour (that's approx 3 cups?) plus 1 cup cake flour - with only 1/4 cup sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder ?? - then you cream the sugar and flour together until light and fluffy!

Thank you for submitting this recipe I had been looking for it for a long time. At the time when I had this recipe it only called for one flavoring which I used vanilla. Thanks again Recipe Lion)

Tremaine, since other comments state that the recipe does not seem correct. You are thanking for the recipe, did you actually make it, and if so how did it turn out. What is Cake Flower as indicated in the recipe and how did it turn out by following the directions that indicated to mix sugar and flour????
