Bishop's Cake image

Pound cake good for gifts. Recipe by Mrs. James H. Huguet, River Roads rEcipes p 176. This is an old fashioned pound cake. As a variation I sprinkle crushed blanched almonds over the top of the cake right before putting it into the oven to bake.

The instructions were a little confusing. I had to read them through a few times before I started baking.

I found that the cake was a little dry. I think I might add some more liquid next time.

The only downside to this cake is that it's so rich. A little goes a long way.

I added a little bit of chopped walnuts to the batter and it gave the cake a nice crunch.

This cake is a great make-ahead dessert. I made it a few days before Christmas and it was still moist and delicious.

I was a little hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of fruitcake. But I'm so glad I did! This cake is delicious. The fruit is not overpowering and the cake is moist and flavorful.
