Vanilla Lemon Pound Cake

I took a course at BBC (Bogasari Baking Center) a baking course by Indonesia's biggest flour mill 2 years ago and now I finally have the time to bake! Since my friend borrowed 7 of my most beloved cookbooks, I am only left with the basic recipe given by BBC. I didn't want to manipulate the recipe too much, so all I did was to change the ingredients from Margarine to Real Butter (it makes all the difference!) and add 6 tablespoon of Real Lemon juice and 1.5 stalk of vanilla bean (seeds only).

The result was not bad, I'll have pictures next time and the recipe itself. It was pretty simple, 20-25 minutes of prep time and then close to 1 hour of baking time.

Next time I am going to add some lemon rind and some triple sec (from Bali Moon of course, since I am really trying to use some local ingredients). I am really hoping I can bake it this weekend, after all the dust of opening www.bukabuku.com has settled (my bones are breaking from lack of sleep and running around office, franctically making sure all orders are fulfilled :-))
