Delicious Pound Cake

Ingredients

  • Three fourths of a pound of butter 
  • One pound of flour
  • Nine egg yolks
  • Twelve egg whites
  • Three cups of all-purpose flour
  • One cup of softened butter
  • Two and one fourth of a cup of sugar
  • One fourth of a cup of brandy
  • One fourth of a cup of nutmeg 

Directions

  1. Cream the butter and sift the flour gradually into it. Stir the mix together.
  2. Beat the egg yolks in a separate pan and then stir into the sugar.
  3. Beat the egg whites into a froth and then add to the yolk and sugar mixture.
  4. Mix the butter and flour mixture with the egg and sugar mixture and pour into a pan. Beat the mixtures together well.
  5. Add the brandy and nutmeg to the pan. Bake carefully in a large pan. Make sure the top of the oven is not hotter than the bottom, for the cake has to be allowed to rise. Bake from the bottom.
