No its not really that big. I does fill up that big bundt round pan you see there...Its a big thick aluminum one and can hold quite a bit....which is why it bakes for 90 minutes....This much at one time for just us goes bad but this freezes wonderfully. Its all natural ingrediants without all the preservatives so shelf life is worthless. After its cooked, we slice it up and wrap each slice in wax paper and then foil and it goes into the freezer. Dont know how long it lasts as ours usually dissapears in 4-6 weeks. FYI its1 pound (4 sticks) butter, plus more for pan
1/2 cup lard4cups sugar
9 eggs
5 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for pan
1 teaspoon fine salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
11/2 cup buttermilk
2 teaspoon vanilla extractWith a mixer, cream butter and lard together. Add sugar, a
little at a time. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating after each addition.
Stir dry ingredients together in a bowl and add to mixer alternately
with buttermilk, starting with the flour and ending with the flour. Mix in
vanilla. Pour into a greased and floured tube pan and bake for 1 to 1
1/2 hours, until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes
out clean.The traditional recipe for a pound cake is one pound of butterone pound of flowerone pound of sugarone pound of eggs (9)cup or two of whole milk or buttermilkteaspoon baking powderThis makes a fine cake. The one I use with the baking powder and buttermilk reacts to make a nice fluffier version. and it completely fills my bunt pan just over the top when cooked. 4951

@Ray
I will be making this. I love love pound cake with fresh berries and cream.
What temp do I bake it at please?
 
I'm making an apple pie tonight along with sugar cookies. They all bake at the same temp. We'll start with the pie and I'll freeze most cookies before icing.
Ice a few to nibble. Instead of a chocolate cake, I'll make the lb cake. Freeze like you do.
my baking will be done for a couple weeks in one shot. 4951

It calls for 350 degrees. Since I have this big *** honkin heavy pan, I do mine at 325 and check it at around an hour with a bamboo skewer ............if it comes out dry its done.Be sure to check google for TRADITIONAL pound cake recipes. Most are similar. Some just use milk, some with 2 eggs and oil, its all over the place. This one I use is from the early 1900's before food nazi's came to be.Mine has ZERO concern for cholesterol, bad fats, it basically has everything that is bad for you .................which is why its so damn good!

@Ray:
 
Oh @Ray I like it like that. I don't buy any store bought baked goods. This lb cake is perfect. I'll freeze as you say and have it as a dinner desert. That is if I can stay out of it. I can eat it all myself in a few days. That's why I'm taking your cue and freezing it. That is if I can keep my ice cream addiction under control.
****** now I'm thinking of making an ice cream cake.
 
Can I add a bag of mini chocolate chips in the batter?

Did you know...you can grill a slice of pound cake? Well, you can. And you should. It's aaaamaizing!
 
Brush with a little melted butter and throw on a grill pan until toasty.
 
Top it with ice cream and fresh fruit. Gah! 4951
