If your family is anything like ours, then you have “the” pound cake recipe, and it would take an act of Congress for you to deviate from the traditional way. However, with only a few staple pantry ingredients and the addition of cream cheese, this pound cake will put your family recipe to the test! Trust us when we say you’ll want to give this recipe a try.

Cream Cheese Pound Cake

Cook Time: 1 hour 45 minutes

Ingredients:

• 1 ½ cups (3 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
• 8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
• 3 cups sugar
• 6 large eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tsp salt
• Nonstick cooking spray

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 350º. With an electric mixer, beat butter and cream cheese until smooth. Add sugar; beat until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
2. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in vanilla. Mix on low, and add flour and salt in two additions, beating until just combined.
3. Generously coat two 8½ x 4½ x 2½ inch loaf pans (1½ quarts each) with cooking spray; immediately pour in batter (pan will seem full). Tap pans on work surface to eliminate any large air bubbles.
4. Bake until golden and a toothpick inserted in the centers comes out almost clean, 60 to 75 minutes (if the tops begin to brown too quickly, tent with aluminum foil).
5. Let cool for 10 minutes in the pan. Turn out the cakes; cool completely, with top sides up, on a wire rack.
