"Pound Cake" (????)

Today I'll give you one of my favorite dessert recipes.

Pound Cakes can be eaten anytime you like, at breakfast, as a snack, or with tea in the afternoon.

The following ingredients are enough for 2 baking loaf pans.

Ingredients:

1 cup butter/ghee.
2 cup sugar.
3 cups flour.

5 eggs.

Less than a cup milk (between 3/4 and 1 cup).
1 1/2 tsp Baking Powder.
2 tsp Vanilla extract.


Directions:

1. Start by warming up the oven to 350F.
2. Beat the butter (or ghee) with sugar on high speed for 10 minutes!!
3. Add the eggs and vanilla extract and beat again.
4. Add the flour through a * sieve, by adding some of the flour in the sieve and shake it, until it all goes down onto the mixture. Keep repeating until you finish all the 3 cups of flour. The reason for doing that, is that we need air to come into the mixture. For if you added all your flour without the previous step, your cake will be thick and sticky! And we need it to be fluffy and light!
5. Add the baking powder and beat the mixture.
6. At last add the milk and beat all again.
7. Brush the bottom and sides of the baking pans with ghee.
8. Add half the mixture to each of the baking pans. Always fill the baking pan maximum to its half!
9. Put the baking pans in the oven on the lower rack.
10. After approximately 35 minutes check if it's fully baked, by inserting a knife in it. If the knife comes out clean, then the cake is baked.
11. When you take the cake out of the oven, you have to remove it immediately from the baking pan into your serving dish.

Tip:

• If you need the cake to be a "vanilla-chocolate" one, you can add about 4 tbsp cocoa after adding the mixture in each loaf pan and stir lightly with a spoon.
• Use nonstick baking loaf pans.
