Inspired by Giada De Laurentiis ** UPDATE: If you love an olive oil cake, I've since adapted this recipe to use olive oil in place of butter. It's also a one-bowl job: One-Bowl Orange-Ricotta Pound Cake (Simple substitute lemon zest for the orange zest and fresh lemon juice for the orange liqueur.)** Notes: Important: You must use a 9x5-inch loaf pan or 10x5-inch loaf pan or something larger for this recipe, or, two 8x4-inch loaf pans, otherwise the batter may spill over into your oven, and the cake will not bake evenly. If you only have an 8x4-inch loaf pan, I would recommend not filling it higher than 3/4 or even halfway to be safe. You can bake off the remaining batter in smaller pans or you can wait till your first loaf is done; then bake off the remaining batter in your cooled and cleaned loaf pan. I often use three mini loaf pans, because this is a great one for gifting.

A dense, moist pound cake flavored with almond and amaretto liqueur. Almond Amaretto Pound Cake is finished with a warm buttery amaretto sauce. Serve the sauce on the side for dipping, or drizzle over the pound cake. Both are equally delicious.
This pound cake is very simple to make — just bowls, a whisk and a spatula are necessary. The cake itself is flavored with orange, vanilla and dark rum. Just as the cake comes out of the oven, we drench it with rum syrup. Divine. The rum used really needs to be dark and strong — otherwise it gets lost. We use an 8 1/2-by-4 1/2-inch loaf pan for this. If you are using a 9-by-5-inch pan, check for doneness 5 minutes before the baking time stated below.
