Deanna Brooks (Arkansas) says:
This is the recipe that has been in our family for nearly 100 years, shortly after my grandparents married... but we NEVER use lemon flavoring in the pound cake (our original recipe called for vanilla)... we use 2 teaspoons real vanilla extract... it always goes over well, and I never bring any home with me. Our recipe calls for 1 lb eggs... and, if you use jumbo eggs, like I did yesterday, it takes 10 eggs. I normally use X-large or jumbo eggs... and I often bake in loaf pans, so I can share... I bake @ 325°F, and it takes nearly an hour, b/c the batter is a thick batter. Delicious!
