I love those recipes that we all grew up with, they are just too good to miss out on.I’ve made a lot of different kinds of pound cake over the years. Most have been pretty good. A few have been amazing and one or two, eh… not so much. But this recipe for Double Caramel Pound Cake? Oh my heck! It’s definitely in the amazing category! The cake is moist and the frosting is delicious.

Our frosting looks different than the frosting on the recipe. There’s was a thin frosting that looked like it was poured over the top. I kind of like the thicker frosting.
Look how much frosting was left over! But no fear, we ate it. =o) It is that good.To Make this Recipe You’ Will Need the following ingredients:
