Best Pound cake Ever

I got this recipe a year ago from a co-worker. It is absolutely positively the best pound cake I have ever eaten. I’ve even had clients tell me that their mothers (who have baked for years) say this is the best pound cake they’ve eaten. It makes great wedding cake layers, too.
