Hello Paula,
1st off great recipe(they’re all good😍)! For those of you who aren’t a big fan of corn syrup, like me. Replace corn syrup with chocolate ganache 😲😲😲🍴😍
Heather says
Do you use unsalted or salted butter?

I always use salted, it’s a personal preference. You can use unsalted if you prefer the taste of it

I’ve got this poundcake in the oven now. I am excited to see if it turns out well. I usually get nervous when I’m baking, because i doubt myself, and Either burn out, or it is still raw in the center. I’ve never made a poundcake, so for my first delve into it, i couldn’t resist this recipe, and I already had all the ingredients at the house.
