Target recipe: cream the butter. add a pound of eggs (typically 8 or 9 eggs), the sifted sugar, almond flavoring, and lemon juice. cream until smooth. my grandmother's recipe said to beat for 1/2 hour. if you are using an electric mixer, adjust accordingly. gradually add the flour and mix well. pre-heat oven to 300. fill a lightly greased form 3/4 of the way. loaf pans work well, as do mini-loafs or cup-cakes. for loafs, check for doneness with knife-test at 90 minutes. mini-loafs and cup-cakes will finish sooner. i like this pound cake plain, or with a light dusting of confectioners' sugar. alternately, you can apply a thin coat of icing.
