Who knows why I find that so funny?

Yep. That’s a classic. And so is pound cake.

Brown sugar gives this dense, rich pound cake a special hit of flavor. It’s lovely served with lots of fresh fruit.

Brown Sugar Pound Cake

Ingredients:

1 cup packed light brown sugar
1 cup butter, softened
4 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
fresh fruit and whipped cream, for garnish–optional

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a 9 x 5 x 3-inch loaf pan.

2. In a large bowl, beat sugar and butter until fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Add vanilla.

3. In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt. Gradually add to sugar mixture. Pour batter into pan.

4. Bake for 1 hour, or until tester inserted in center comes out clean. Remove from pan and turn out on rack to cool completely. Serve pound cake with whipped cream and fruit, if you like.
