== Description ==
This recipe is very old and is a take on a pound cake, except the crumb is very fine - almost "sand-like." It has a lovely flavor and tastes great if served with a fruit sauce, such as strawberry. Please note that this recipe is being translated as it originally was written; there will be an ingredient listed that is no longer made but please read the note as to the proper substitution.
== Ingredients ==
* 1 lb butter (must use butter here - no substitutions)
* 3 egg yolks
* 3 whole eggs
* 1 lb sugar (2¼ cups)
* 1 tsp vanilla extract
* 1 lb Potatine flour Note: Potatine flour is no longer made. Substitute with 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour and 2 cups cornstarch. This is as close as you will get to the consistency of the original Potatine flour.
== Directions ==
# Cream the butter and add the yolks, whole eggs, sugar and vanilla. Blend thoroughly.
# Add the flour and make sure everything is mixed completely.
# Pour into a greased spring-form pan and bake at 350°F for 1 hour.
