This Is The Cake Of All Cakes!
My grandma made the best pound cakes ever. She’s 97 years old so she doesn’t do much baking these days, but I still remember that incredible lemon pound cake she used to make when I was a kid. It was so amazing! You couldn’t take a bite without closing your eyes and sighing over how delicious it was. My mother definitely inherited grandma’s baking skills; her vanilla pound cake is so famous among family members that whenever we get together, we practically fight over the last piece!
For a while now I’ve been wondering if I could somehow combine these two favorite pound cake flavors. I’m not much of a cake-baker (ask my husband) but I was determined to make this work so that I could surprise my mom and grandma. I didn’t want to copycat either of their recipes but, instead, create something that had these familiar flavors with a twist.
