My mom made this cake for my brother every year for his birthday when we were growing up. It is a very comforting, old-fashioned and delicious cake.

Time 2h10m

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 cups sugar
5 1/3 fluid ounces evaporated milk
1/3 cup water
1/2 cup Crisco
1 cup butter (2 sticks)
1/4 teaspoon salt
5 eggs
3 1/4 cups flour
2 tablespoons butter pecan flavoring (we use Superior brand imitation vanilla, butter and nut flavoring)
1/2 cup butter (room temperature)
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese (room temperature)
1 (16 ounce) box powdered sugar
1 tablespoon butter pecan flavoring
1/2 cup chopped pecans

Steps:

  • For the cake:.
  • Mix all the ingredients together and pour into a greased, floured angel food cake pan or a greased bundt pan.
  • Place in COLD oven and turn heat to 325 degrees.
  • Bake for 1 hour and 40 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean.
  • For the frosting: ****.
  • Beat cream cheese and butter until smooth.
  • Add box of powdered sugar and beat well.
  • Add butter & nut flavoring and blend.
  • Stir in chopped pecans.
  • Spread on top of cake and let come down the sides.
  • ****Note:.
  • My mother always put the full batch of frosting on the cake. My aunt's recipe says to make 1/2 the frosting recipe for the cake. It is a personal preference. If you like alot of frosting; make the entire batch. If you don't like too much frosting cut the frosting recipe in half.

Easy to make and delicious! I used pecans instead of walnuts, and it was still great.

This pound cake was a delightful treat! The butter and nut flavors blended perfectly, and the texture was moist and tender. I served it with fresh berries and a dollop of whipped cream, and it was a hit with my family and friends.
