Christy's Cold Oven Pound Cake
"Christy is a truly wonderful cook, especially talented with dessert. This cake is her specialty, good with fresh whipped cream, fruits or just plain. Don't leave out the mace, it adds a nice flavor. It's called cold oven pound cake because you bake in an oven that has not been preheated."

So easy to make with such great results! I make a great Lemon/Mace sugar cookie so I added the zest from 2 lemons to this recipe and glazed it with a lemon/sugar glaze. Use a 12 cup Bundt pan as it's quite a bit of batter. Shared this with friends and they asked for the recipe before they were done eating it! -
This cake is easy and incredible! Whenever we get together with neighbors they insist I always bring this cake. I add a teaspoon of cinnamon to the recipe. Don't ever leave out the mace! -
You're right about the mace, it adds a nice flavor. I liked this because it yields a nice pound cake, but without all the fuss of other pound cake recipes I have tried. -
This is an excellent cake!!
