Time 55m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 cups cake flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 (4 ounce) bar sweet chocolate, grated
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup butter
2 cups white sugar
4 eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch pan. Reserve 1 tablespoon of the cake flour. Sift together remaining flour and baking powder. Set aside.
  • Toss the chocolate and walnuts with reserved 1 tablespoon of flour. Set aside. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Beat in the flour mixture alternately with the milk, mixing just until incorporated. Fold in the chocolate and walnuts.
  • Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow to cool before frosting.

The pound cake was a bit dry, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try adding some sour cream or buttermilk next time to make it more moist.

The pound cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

The pound cake was a bit too eggy for my taste. I think I'll try using less eggs next time.

This pound cake was dense and flavorful, with a hint of citrus. I loved the addition of the lemon zest. It was a perfect treat for an afternoon snack.

The glaze on this pound cake was a bit too thick and sweet for me. I think I'll try making it without the glaze next time.
