This Jamaican Pound Cake is an old recipe I found in my mother-in-law's cupboard. It's made from a boxed pound cake mix with the addition of rum, bananas, sour cream and almonds. It's super simple and so good!

  • Cook: 1 hr 10 mins

I’ve heard of the dog ate my homework, but a recipe card? That’s so funny!
