De La Tierre, Maple Tequila Pound Cake, RecipeWhen I have lots of work to do, I usually bake something at the same time. The attention necessary to cooking properly provides the moments necessary for me to quiet my ADD mind so I’m more capable of focusing on the work. This week, I had several jobs I needed to take care of that became major exercises in problem solving so finally getting to the Maple Walnut Pound Cake recipe I wanted to twist with De La Tierre’s Maple Tequila was just what the doctor ordered.

Before you cringe at the maple & tequila combo, you should know that it is my opinion that this is a fantastic liqueur.  You can read my review here.

So let’s get to the cake!
