Easter Lamb cake

Easter Lamb cake

Memories of Easter traditions reminded me of the star of the show, a Easter Lamb cake. Every Easter my aunt baked this cake in her antique cake mold pans. She used tons of real butter in her secret recipe, more like a butter pound cake. And her icing was rich and decadent, I think it was a cream cheese icing or possibly a buttercream icing. 

Would love to bake one this year but finding the lamb cake pans may not be easy. My aunt's cake pans were heavy cast-iron molds as opposed to the lighter weight pans. Since I don't have her secret recipe I Googled to find one I can use.

Guess what I found as a "recipe", they suggest to get a pound cake mix, wow, how easy it that? Okay guess I am out of excuses now and will have to try to make one and continue the tradition!
