BEST POUND CAKE RECIPE EVER! Old Fashioned Southern Pound Cake

[@jayejohnson5257]

Hi I’m a baker too and I learned from an Elder lady when using eggs and baking. Always crack your eggs in a separate bowl one at a time not only for shells but just in case the egg is bad. She also taught me to take out the white(embryo/bitty) from the egg, she was a southern woman who ran a restaurant in her younger years. Just a tip❤️

[@seawhybea7453]

What about double yoke eggs? Would that count as two eggs?

[@LGAussie]

Blood doesn’t do any harm. It’s just that ppl cringe when they see it. My Mother was raised on a farm. She said blood doesn’t harm the egg at all. She also said u will always know when an egg is bad just by the smell. Bad eggs smell real bad. U can’t miss it.

Hello I am Howard PHeelgooD, soul singing entertainer here in Las Vegas via Memphis TN. I just needed you to know this cake and the way you teach how to do the recipe is absolutely delicious and wins over every one. I am not a baker and took a chance with this clip bc my mom used to bake pound cakes for the family. She has since past. This year when I baked it and shared it at the family gathering, people got emotional bc they said it tasted like my Mama's cake. They thought I used her recipe. I simply want to say thank you thank you thank you because I baked a cake from scratch because of you. You blessed us. Stay blessed and please keep sharing your cooking gifts 🙏🏾❤️

[@traciesplace]

Hi there! Awww 🥰 awesome 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏽 I’m sooo glad you and your family loved the recipe and then that it tasted like your precious Mom’s cake? Oh my, that made me feel so happy. Enjoy it for years to come. Much love and many blessings to you and the family! 🤗🙏🏽🙏🏽💗

Yes it is, I have a red one!😍 You should always crack your eggs into a separate dish first. You never know when you can get a bad egg, and that could save your cake! That rule has saved me many times!

[@zacharylavender1568]

Suggestion: add the sour cream after the eggs. When you add the sour cream at the end, you run the risk of overheating the batter, which renders a tough cake. Just a suggestion.

[@reaginmx]

Thanks for the tip Zachary.

[@brenda46ist]

Zachary, am mot sure I agree; I think the secret to this pound cake is (2) adding the sour cream last and (2) not beating the butter/sugar mixture too long. We must remember our mothers/grandmothers beat the cake batter by hand. The original cake was dense not light & fluffy (like a bundt cake). Tracie, I think you hit the nail on the head. I saw one other video like yours. All the others alternate flour & liquid. The lady made her mothers recipe: she insisted that the sour cream be added last AND the batter was beaten by hand. I think you have the "secret" to perfect texture. DO NOT CHANGE A THING GIRL!

I got a bad egg one time that wrecked my batter, so I always crack them in a separate bowl now.

I use this recipe, all is the same except the almond flavor. I will try it with the almond next time, this cake is always a hit at our house, so yummy.

I was taught to alternate the flour and liquids, ending with the flour. I will try it your way of adding the sour cream at the end. Thanks for your technique and recipe.

Someone said in the thread to add the sour cream after the egg, otherwise u get a tough cake in the end.

I tried this recipe yesterday for a family function and it was an instant hit even using my hand mixer, the cake stood tall and was so moist and delicious. I didn't have a slice left. I will be using this one again.

Regarding your hesitancy to leave eggs unrefrigerated... it is interesting to note that unwashed eggs from a farm will last months at 70 degrees. Washed eggs will last for weeks at 70 degrees. We produce a few thousand eggs daily and bring a dozen at a time to the house for personal use. We never refrigerate personal use eggs. Any one dozen is generally consumed within 2 weeks in our house, but I would not hesitate to use eggs that are a month old. This is good to know for baking when ingredient temps can matter. (We do refrigerate those shipped commercially because it is required by law.)
