Lemon Pound Cake With Cherry Streusel Topping

"This pound cake uses half butter and half cream cheese and is topped with cherry filling and a crumb streusel. I came up with the recipe by mixing several different recipes together. This will make at least two large loaves, I usually make smaller loaves to pass out to friends."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am a constant baker, always trying a new recipe or creating one of my own. I have been baking and cooking ever since I can remember, my earliest memories being those of cooking with my mom. My cookbook file is full of generations of handwritten pages passed down from mother to daughter. Recipes aren't about ingredients and how to, rather they are memories of people and times that have made me who I am. <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket">
