    I made this, took it to a party, came home with only two pieces!! It was absolutely delicious. I drizzled a lemon juice, powdered sugar, almond glaze over the cake, then covered the crown with toasted sliced almonds! Wonderful, wonderful! Thanks, jett. :) :)

    This looks great! And of course, I know why it's called million dollar pound cake, with the price of butter these days...just kidding! Sounds rich and delicious!
