Tasty Tuesday



I got some more sweet talk for you today, it's all about chocolate and love this week, as I'm still going through my recipes to find those perfect confections for gift giving and of course, to share with you! Today is perfect for a practice run or bake in this case, the snowfall has stopped only to be backed up by sub zero wind chills making everything white freeze, so I'm snug as a bug and ready to do some baking! For this tasty Tuesday, I'm sharing a fudgy pound cake recipe that is easy and doesn't rob the pantry too badly.

Fudgy Pound Cake

1/2 c. butter
1 3/4 c. sugar
2 Tbsp. vanilla
3 eggs
1 3/4 c. all purpose flour
2/3 c. cocoa
2 t. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 c. sour cream
Preheat oven to 325. In a large bowl, cream butter, sugar and vanilla. Beat in eggs. In a small bowl, combine flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda. Stir flour mixture into butter mixture, alternating with sour cream. Pour into greased bundt pan and bake for 1 hour. Cool.

Simple enough and oh so good! You can't go wrong with a fudgy pound cake, I always say! I hope your staying snug too, winter just won't let go here and in so many other states too, but February is almost half over and March is waiting patiently to rescue us and treat us to some nicer weather, so hang on! Happy baking!
