Egg Nog Pound Cake

 

I should have named this the post that almost wasn’t!!! I have had a crazy insane week!  I have been getting up at 4:30 everyday and then working till 4:30 or later.  I had planned on writing the text for this post last night after the trick or treaters.  My over worked body and sleep deprived fuzzy brain just totally blanked and I went straight to bed!!!  So here I am writing after the post went live and no one can see anything but the pictures!  I guess that is what you call a snafu.  Better late than never!

This is my 4th week of the 12 Weeks of Christmas!!! I missed the first 2, so that means the Christmas is only 6 WEEKS AWAY! I can’t believe it!  Brenda at Meal Planning Magic is a dream hosting this Part each week for us all!  It’s not too late to join so by all means pop on over and check it out!  It is great fun and there are sooo many yummy treats to make each week!  I have a list a mile long that I want to make for my friends and family!

I found this cake in a recipe book that had gotten buried under a pile of papers, books, bills, magazines…. you know that pile in the corner of everyone’s kitchen….  Well I got tired of that corner and I tackled it!  So glad that I did because this cake was the result of that frenzied purging of useless junk!  This cake is dense and moist and it tastes like Christmas Eve!! Seriously that is a flavor.  This is going to made again I can promise you that!
