"This recipe spread like wildfire in our community.
It is very close to the old fashioned pound cakes, but doesn't
take as long. Stays moist for several days, if it's not eaten
before then." Submitted by Annetta Smith of Williston, Florida

Always Moist Pound Cake
- 1 (18.25-ounce) package Duncan Hines brand
all butter cake mix *
4 large eggs
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup granulated sugar
8 ounces (1 cup) sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- All ingredients should be at room temperature.
- Preheat oven to 350*F (175*C).
- Combine cake mix, oil, sour cream and
sugar. Add eggs one at a time until thoroughly mixed. Stir in
vanilla.
- Spray (or grease) bundt pan and sugar
coat the inside of pan (this creates the crisp crust found on
the old fashioned pound cakes). Pour batter into prepared pan
and bake for approximately 45 minutes or until cake test is done.
Makes 12 servings.
* I have substituted other flavor mixes
using same added ingredients as this one, and they are just as
good. I like this one because of the butter flavor. I've also
added lemon extract instead of the vanilla and it adds a wonderful
flavor.
