my favorite breakfast treat is stale pound cake, toasted, buttered, and spread with raspberry preserves! A little slice of heaven!
(the hard part is keeping pound cake in the house long enough for it to stale--) and in french--pound cake is 4 quarters- the basic ingredients are 4 oz of butter, 4 oz of sugar, 4 oz of eggs, 4 oz of flour-- and allegedly, the English liked it so much, they took the same recipe and uses 1lb butter, 1 lb sugar, 1 lb eggs, 1lb flour...
It one of my son's favorite cakes--
