Every oven is different. If the recipe calls to bake at 375 you may need to bake at 350 test how your oven works. If they tell you to weigh the ingredients then by all means weigh them. Cup measurement is different from scale measurement, don't over work the flour that will cause your cake to be hard and too dense, beating your flour for more than 3 min can ruin your cake. All of your ingredients must be at room temp (not straight out of the refrigerator this recipe is the best....

This cake is fabulous like the other writer said if you don't follow the directions correctly don't blame the recipe. Also invest in a food thermometer. All ovens are not calibrated the same. 210 degrees is a perfect cake . I made it in several vessels and they all were perfection! YUM!

I posted a poor review prior but tried this again, this time WEIGHING the ingredients. This cake is FABULOUS. Not too sweet, very compact, tons of flavor. If the reason it doesn't turn out is because of measuring the ingredients incorrectly, don't fault the recipe.
Now I want to eat this!

DON'T BAKE THIS CAKE!! This recipe was terrible. I read all the reviews and followed suggestions that made sense. Still the cake was awful. It took two hours to bake (tube pan and still was not done inside. I couldn't bake it any longer because the outside was burning. At first I thought the taste was good, but then realized it was very eggy. It was a complete waste of ingredients.

Awesome cake: dense, moist and delicious. The buttermilk gives a great flavor and keeps the cake from being as oppressively heavy as traditional pound cakes. I recommend adding some honey and a drop of almond extract, and baking it at 325º instead of 375.

The cake was a disaster. Only used 2 cups of flour--I mixed for 6 min but cake didn't rise--one big blob plus it stuck to the bundt pan and broke in half so I threw it all away.

This makes a very heavy cake, which I guess is what its supposed to be. The flavor grew on me a little more with each piece. I added a chocolate ganache to the top which made it a little more interesting. Then I wanted chocolate pound cake.....so of course I found plenty of recipes on this site.
