I have had the delightful privilege to bake this pound cake three times. It tastes and looks better each time. I did three eggs this time instead of two. And each time I baked the cake, it needed an additional 7-10 minute baking time. I did not have any brandy this time but used my “RUM EMULSION.”
It is a favorite among my seniors at the church and in our household.

omg, here’s a lighter version : I reduced the following : flour (2cups), sugar (1 cup) and fat (125gr butter only) added half and half for the batter to be workable and used a large round baking pan of height 5cm, diam 26cm, thus reduced cooking time to only 40 minutes which resulted in a moist light vanilla coconutty cake ! Thanks for the recipe basis, we don’t get pecan christmas cakes here in France, thet’a nice substitute (my favorite being the collin street bakery cakes in Texas of course !)

In reply to Zinnie Martini. Hi Zinnie - I don't think it needs it, but you certainly could add both if you prefer. Perhaps 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and 1/4 teaspoon of nutmeg.

In reply to farrah d. I haven't tried it, but generally, you can substitute butter or coconut oil for vegetable oil in cake.
