Cream Cheese Pound Cake

Cream Cheese Pound Cake


  • Author: amys recipes

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese (softened)
  • 3 cups granulated sugar
  • 6 large eggs
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F. Grease and flour a bundt or loaf pan.
  2. Cream butter and cream cheese together until light and fluffy (about 3-5 minutes).
  3. Add sugar gradually, beating well after each addition.
  4. Beat in eggs one at a time, making sure each is incorporated.
  5. Mix in flour slowly, just until combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Add vanilla and blend.
  7. Pour into prepared pan and smooth the top.
  8. Bake for 1 hour 20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  9. Cool in pan for 10-15 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack.

Notes

Overmixing the batter will mess with the texture—aim for just combined once the flour goes in.
