Happy New Years Eve! I just adapted a traditional Pound cake recipe. I didn’t have lemons so I improvised with the cheap Clementines that I bought at Lotte Mart. I am going to a friends tonight and want to bring something that will knock their socks off.

DIRECTIONS

1. Mix together in my Kitchen Aid Mixer 1 cup sugar and melted butter.
2. Add eggs and 1 tablespoon of lemon extract and clementine juice; mix well.
3. Add salt, flour, and baking powder to mixture.
4. Add milk.
5. Bake at 325°F in a well greased loaf pan for 1 hour,or until golden brown.
6. Whisk together 1/3 cup clementine juice and 1/4 cup sugar.
7. Poke toothpick into the top of the pound cake and drizzle clementine juice and sugar mixture over the top of the cake when removed from the oven. I put it outside to chill for 10 minutes.
