Don't know why, but recently I've had a craving for and interest in pound/sponge cakes. I tried a coconut pound cake recipe and it was pretty good (made with icing sugar instead of regular sugar). Have several other recipes to try in hope's of narrowing them down to a couple favs.
What's your favourite pound cake recipe?
This is the coconut pound cake recipe I tried:

1Pound powered sugar

.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. In blender or food processor, pulse coconut to coarse consistency. Set aside.
.
In large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each. Add egg whites; beat well. Blend in extracts. Gradually add flour, baking powder and prepared coconut; mix until thoroughly blended.
