This pound cake just screams New England in the fall! The fresh apples off the tree that were pressed into apple cider! This is my favorite time of year. Not just for the apple picking, but for all the fall colors the New England area has to offer, not to mention football and tailgating! This recipe was sampled by a number of taste testers and all of them were in agreement that this is delicious! I will definitely be making this every fall. We really enjoyed it and I hope you do too!
