OLD FASHIONED POUND CAKE



2 sticks butter, no substitutes

3 cups sugar

3 cups plain flour, sifted 3 times

1/2 pint whipping cream

1/4 tsp salt

1 1/2 tsp flavoring (any flavor, I use Lemon)

2 eggs

Cream butter and sugar well. Add 1 egg at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add 1 cup of flour at a time, alternately with cream. Beat until very light and fluffy. Pour into a greased tube pan and place in a COLD oven. Bake 1 1/2 hours at 325 degrees. Let cool for 10 minutes before transferring to cake plate.
