I have made this pound cake so many times. For those who only gave it one star had to have done something wrong (sorry. This is easy and always gets plenty of compliments. It would be worth your while do try again.

I tried this recipe while visiting my mother and I have to say this is the best sour cream pound cake I ever made. Go Paula. Everyone enjoyed eating this cake. This cake was eaten in one day. Everyone wanted me to make another one but I had other things to do. This is the first chance I have to make it since I left Michigan. I will make it again now that I'm back home in Texas.

This cake was my first attempt at a pound cake and I must say it turned out really good. To the people that tasted it I got rave reviews. Also the next time I make it I will also add some lemon flavor and a lemon glaze. I think it will set it off. Thanks Paula
