I know why it’s called pound cake…because you gain a pound with each slice…seriously. But I was hosting the Finer Things Club, and it was necessary. Totally.
This came from the Idaho chapter of Finer Things. Thanks Katie. Super yummy. Super non-low fat.

Seriously Stephanie, every post almost is about YUMMY looking food! How do you stay so thin. I don't cook this way, but if I did, I'd hate to even think about it!!
