Sour Cream Pound Cake



Say it ain't so! I actually baked a pound cake. If someone would've said years ago I'd crave pound cake,much less sour cream pound cake, I'd punch them in the face. For years growing up I hated the thought of pound cake. To me it wasn't real "cake" but about 2 years ago my mom changed my mind. My mom made a sour cream pound cake and it was so moist,dense and tasty. It seriously made me re-evaluate how I felt about pound cake. All in all now I'm in love with this sour cream pound cake! Thanks mom!
