    I saw the high reviews so i decided to make this. I cut the sugar to 2 cups, because 3 cups sounds a bit crazy. I replaced shortening with more butter. I read the reviews before I made this and thought it was fool proof. I used the tube pan Paula used in her video, and it leaked, burning the bottom of my oven. I read one review that said they put it in there for 45 mins and it was perfect, mine was beginning to burn so I took it out at 45 mins. When it cooled, I cut a slice, finding it not to be pound cake. Maybe I'm just use to Sarah Lee's pound cake? This recipe was not for me, I will use a different one.

    I used this cake to make my son a dinosaur cake for his 1st birthday and im using it today to make a 3d eagle cake because it is so dense, the flavor is awesome and its moist and holds its shape very well. I would recommend this for any occasion, i added english toffee candy flavoring and it was fantastic, i also topped one with cherry pie filling delicious!!!!

    This cake came out amazing with no alterations to the actual recipe! But I did add fresh blackberries to it which was awesome!

    It was more of a crumb cake than a pound cake though....

    I made this for my dad for Father's Day, and he loved it. The cake was moist and had wonderful flavor. I recommend adding butter on top of a slice and heating it in the microwave for 10-15 seconds. Delicious!!
