GOLDEN LEMON POUND CAKE
Years ago, while pastoring a church in New Mexico, I worked in a nursing home. For a Christmas party, I baked this pound cake. Everyone raved over the treats "my wife" made. When I told them I'd made them myself, they were astonished.-Douglas Jennings, Ottawa, Kansas

[email protected]This golden lemon pound cake was a delightful treat! The texture was moist and fluffy, and the lemon flavor was perfectly balanced - not too tart, not too sweet. I loved the glaze on top, which added a nice crunch and extra sweetness.
