Excellent pound cake. I didn't put any kind of glaze on it because it was good all by itself. I did note that there are no directions for when to add the 5 eggs so I added them one at a time after I had creamed the sugar and butter. I used regular butter since I don't keep margarine. Thanks for a great recipe.
