FIVE FLAVOR POUND CAKE
I just tried this cake for the first time at funeral in Chicago. After the first bite, I went in search of the cook and talked her out of the recipe. All those different extracts may sound strange, but trust me it is wonderful! At the bottom I have included Six Flavor Pound Cake and Seven Flavor Pound Cake variations. Also, you can make a 5 flavor cake with a 6 flavor glaze or any other combination.

Tips:
- Use room temperature ingredients. This will help the ingredients to blend together more easily and evenly, resulting in a smooth and consistent batter.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, making the cake lighter and more tender.
- Gradually add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
- Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt before adding them to the batter. This will help to ensure that the dry ingredients are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough and dense cake.
- Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that the cake rises evenly.
- Cool the cake completely before serving. This will help to prevent the cake from crumbling.
