This is a rather easy pound cake to make. I got the recipe from my mother but I added my own changes. She got it from her mother and made changes as well.

How To Make grandmomma's fabulous easy pound cake

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease and flour a tube pan. Allow butter and eggs to reach room temperature.

Step 2

Using a mixer cream butter and sugar together. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well. Add vanilla extract.
Step 3

Sift the two flours together. Alternate adding the flour mixture and milk to the batter. Start with the flour mixture and end with the flour mixture.
Step 4

Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake for about 1 hour, depending on your oven.
Step 5

Sometimes I will add a bag of chocolate chips or peanut butter chips to the batter before I pour it into the pan. I've also served it with strawberries and whipped cream. How you serve it is limited only by your imagination!
