Pound Cake

From my mom's Grandma

2 sticks butter
1/2 c. Crisco
3 c. sugar
5 eggs, room temperature

Mix together:
3 c. flour (plain Red Brand)
1 tsp. baking powder
dash salt

Mix together:
2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
1 c. milk

Beat together butter and Crisco until creamy. Gradually beat in sugar until well blended. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Alternate mixing in flour mixture and milk mixture, ending with milk mixture. Pour into greased and flour tube pan. Bake at 350 for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Take out and wrap in aluminum foil immediately. Let cool before serving.
