1. Cream the butter. 2. Add a pound of eggs (typically 8 or 9 eggs), the sifted sugar, almond flavoring, and lemon juice. 3. Cream until smooth. 4. My Grandmother's recipe said to beat for 1/2 hour. 5. If you are using an electric mixer, adjust accordingly. 6. Gradually add the flour and mix well. 7. Pre-heat oven to 300. 8. Fill a lightly greased form 3/4 of the way. 9. Loaf pans work well, as do mini-loafs or cup-cakes. 10. For loafs, check for doneness with knife-test at 90 minutes. 11. Mini-loafs and cup-cakes will finish sooner. 12. I like this pound cake plain, or with a light dusting of confectioners' sugar. 13. Alternately, you can apply a thin coat of icing. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
