ALMOND POUND CAKE



Almond Pound Cake image

Very rich! One of my favourite cakes. This is good dressed up with frosting, served plain, or with fruit. I quadrupled this recipe, and baked it in two 9"x13" pans to make a cake for my father's 65th birthday party. Note: be sure the almonds are finely ground; if they seem somewhat coarse you should run them through the food processor until quite fine.

ALMOND CRUNCH POUND CAKE



Almond Crunch Pound Cake image

This is a dense, rich cake with a candy-like topping that is easy to make. It freezes really well so you can have a great dessert on hand. Wrap well and store at room temperature up to 2 days or freeze up to 1 month. Crisp it in the oven briefly at 300 degrees F (150 degrees C) for that just-baked taste. Serve with whipped cream and raspberries.

TENDER ALMOND POUND CAKE



Tender Almond Pound Cake image

This recipe makes a dense, sweet cake. As the name "Pound Cake" implies, the recipe calls for a "pound" each of butter, eggs, sugar, and flour. This recipe was given to me by my Czech Grandmother.

Categories     Dessert

Time 2h15m

Yield 1 cake

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb butter, room temperature
8 eggs
1 lb sugar, sifted
1 teaspoon almond flavoring
2 tablespoons lemon juice (or other citrus)
1 lb flour, sifted
icing (optional)

Steps:

  • Cream the butter.
  • Add a pound of eggs (typically 8 or 9 eggs), the sifted sugar, almond flavoring, and lemon juice.
  • Cream until smooth.
  • My Grandmother's recipe said to beat for 1/2 hour.
  • If you are using an electric mixer, adjust accordingly.
  • Gradually add the flour and mix well.
  • Pre-heat oven to 300.
  • Fill a lightly greased form 3/4 of the way.
  • Loaf pans work well, as do mini-loafs or cup-cakes.
  • For loafs, check for doneness with knife-test at 90 minutes.
  • Mini-loafs and cup-cakes will finish sooner.
  • I like this pound cake plain, or with a light dusting of confectioners' sugar.
  • Alternately, you can apply a thin coat of icing.
