I have been looking to re-create a pound cake that my grandmother made. The problem is that I suspect I can't!
The recipe itself had to be a pretty basic one. The biggest problem is this: her had a THICK crust on it when it came out of the oven. She had a gas oven, with "wet" natural gas (she lived IN an oil field, and they got unprocessed natural gas for their heating and cooking). I was not old enough to remember a recipe or anything other than the beautiful golden color of the inside and the dark brown thick crust.
My dad has been talking about the cake for a long time, and I would like to see if I could duplicate it.
Can anyone offer suggestions?
