OLD FASHIONED LEMON POUND CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Mix cooking oil (Crisco works best), sugar, margarine(Can't believe it's not butter works best), eggs, vanilla and lemon flavoring together in a large mixing bowl with mixer on medium speed. Tip: when adding eggs, add two then mix, add two more then mix, add last one and mix.
• In separate bowl, mix flour and baking powder together and set aside (can use whisk to mix).
• Slowly add flour/baking powder mixture in with the wet mixture. Tip: Add a little flour mixture and a little milk, repeat until all milk and flour mix has been added. This helps to keep batter texture thick and smooth.
• Spray (Baker's Joy works best) or batter bunt/tube pan thoroughly.
• Pour batter mixture in bunt/tube pan. Place in preheated oven and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
• Cake is done when cake tester comes out clean.
