Bless Your Spoon

This week and next, we’ll be reading some of the oldest and most popular recipes for cake – the southern pound cakes. A true pound cake recipe is one that dates back to the 1700s.

Originally, the cake earned the name because of how it’s made – originally with a pound of each – butter, sugar, eggs, and flour.
