Award-Winning All-Butter Pound Cake
Ingredients
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 cups white sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups butter, softened
  • 5 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the desired temperature of 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2
To prevent sticking, lightly coat a tube-shaped baking vessel with melted butter and sprinkle a thin layer of flour over it.
3
In a separate container, whisk together the dry ingredients consisting of flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
4
In a large mixing bowl, cream together sugar and butter using an electric mixer until the mixture reaches a smooth consistency. Gradually add eggs one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
5
Mix the dry ingredients with the sugar and butter mixture in alternating intervals, incorporating milk between each addition. Add a hint of vanilla extract to the batter for extra flavor.
6
Pour the prepared batter into the tube-shaped baking vessel, ensuring it's evenly distributed.
7
Bake the cake in a preheated oven for 1 hour to 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8
Allow the cake to cool in its original pan for 5 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Let the cake continue cooling completely, taking around 30 minutes.
