Vanilla pound cake

Here is my recipe for vanilla pound cake:

Ingredients:

3 cups self rising flour
2 cups sugar
2 sticks of softened butter or margarine
1/4 cup vanilla extract
3 large eggs
1-2 teaspoons milk

Directions:

In a large mixing bowl, add the softened butter and beat.  Then mix in the sugar.  After the sugar and butter have been well mixed, slowly add in the eggs and pour in the vanilla extract.  The mixture will be creamy.  Once the mixture is creamy or fluffy, slowly add in the flour and mix scraping the sides of the bowl so that all of the batter is mixed in.  Slowly, pour in a lightly greased and floured baking pan.  Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for an hour.  Once the cake is ready, cool for about 30 minutes to an hour.  Then serve.
