Ingredients
- 3 cups white sugar shopping list

- 6-7 large eggs (I use 7) shopping list
- 3 cups sifted cake flour (sift twice) shopping list
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream shopping list
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract shopping list
- 1 teaspoon lemon extract shopping list
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract (experiment with the flavor to your liking) shopping list
How to make it
- DO NOT PREHEAT OVEN!.
- Grease and flour a 10 inch tube pan. Set aside.
- Cream together the sugar and butter until light (5-7 minutes). Continue beating and add 7 eggs, one at a time; beating well after each egg, but just until the yellow is blended. DO NOT OVERBEAT!
- Add extracts and blend well.
- In a separate bowl, mix together flour and salt. Beat a third of the flour mixture into the egg and sugar mixture, then add a third of the cream. Continue beating in flour and whipping cream alternating in thirds, but make sure you end with flour. Pour into prepared pan and bake at 350 degrees for about 60 to 75 minutes or until cake tester comes out clean. Cool pan on rack for 15-20 minutes before turning it out onto a rack and continue cooling for about and hour before you transfer to a serving plate. This is the best pound cake I have ever tasted!
