OLD-FASHIONED POUND CAKE
In the South, we love a good pound cake. This one is positively heavenly-sweet and rich but still, somehow, light as a cloud. Creaming the butter and sugar is the most important step when making a pound cake. Give it time to whip up light and fluffy, and scrape down the sides often when adding eggs. This pound cake is perfect served as-is, or you can dress it up with sweetened whipped cream and fresh berries.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Place butter in the bowl of a heavy-duty electric stand mixer, and beat at medium speed until light and fluffy (about 6 minutes). Gradually add sugar, beating until blended. Beat1 more minute. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating just until yellow disappears after each addition.
- Combine flour and next 2 ingredients. Combine evaporated milk and cream; add to butter mixture alternately with flour mixture, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Beat at low speed just until blended after each addition, stopping to scrape down sides as needed. Stir in vanilla. Pour batter into a greased (with shortening) and floured 10-inch (16-cup) tube pan.
- Bake at 350°F for 1 hour and 15 minutes or until a long wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack 1 hour; remove from pan to wire rack, and cool completely (about 1 hour).

Steps:
- Allow butter and eggs to come to room temperature.
- Grease and flour a tube (I recommend this one.)or bundt pan. The cake is too large for a regular bundt pan. You need a 10-15 cup bundt pan like this which is larger than a standard bundt. If you don't have a tube pan or large bundt pan, you can make cupcakes with the extra batter. Don't fill the pan closer than 2 inches from the top or it may overflow. You can grease and flour, use non-stick spray, or I absolutely love this cake release product from Wilton! You may need to line the sides of the tube pan with waxed paper so that is above the top of the pan 2 to 3 inches as shown in the photo. This is a very tall cake.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Cream 2 cups butter until soft and there are no lumps.
- Add 3 and 1/2 cups granulated sugar and cream until light and fluffy.
- Add one at a time, beating until just mixed in before adding the next egg.
- Lower speed on mixer to low and slowly add 4 cups sifted all-purpose flour.
- Add vanilla and mix in completely.
- Spoon batter into prepared tube or bundt pan. (If using a bundt pan, make sure it's large enough for batter to double in size.)
- Bake at 350 degrees F for 1 hour and 20 minutes.
- *PLEASE NOTE - COOKING TIMES VARY DEPENDING ON IF YOUR OVEN IS CALIBRATED AND IF YOU USE A LIGHT OR DARK PAN. TEST THE CAKE BEFORE THE RECOMMENDED TIME. IF THE CAKE IS TOO DRY, YOU BAKED IT TOO LONG.
- Test for doneness with a wooden pick. Insert pick in the center of the cake, if pick comes out clean or with dry crumbs, it is done.
- Remove cake and allow to cool on a wire rack 30 minutes before inverting onto a serving platter.
- The recipe is correct as written. There are no baking soda or baking powder in it.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 325°.
- 2. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle, cream together the butter, cream cheese and sugar until light and fluffy with the mixer on medium speed. (No higher than medium).
- 3. Add each egg, one at a time, blending after each addition. Add both extracts.
- 4. Turn the mixer down to low and add the salt and the flour a little at a time until it is all added. Mix for another minute on low until the flour is completely incorporated.
- 5. Grease and flour a tube pan. Pour the cake batter into the pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Sprinkle a couple teaspoons of sugar evenly across the top of the batter.
- 6. Bake for 90 minutes in preheated oven or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. (If the cake is not finished at 90 minutes, let it cook for another ten minutes, checking again afterwards).
- 7. Remove the cake from the oven and set it on the counter and let it rest for 10 minutes. After ten minutes, run a butter knife around the outer edges of the tube pan. Lift the cake out from the pan's outer piece by pulling up on the center tube (while using a pot holder). Set the cake back down on the counter and cover it with a cake cover and let it 'sweat' for ten more minutes.
- 8. Run the butter knife around the bottom of the cake, separating the bottom of the cake from the pan. Carefully and quickly turn the cake over onto your flat hand or plate, remove the pan's tube piece, and then flip the cake back right side up on a serving plate.
- 9. Serve with coffee, hot tea, whipped cream, fresh fruit, or other scrumptious things.
OLE FASHIONED POUND CAKE
This recipe has been passed down from generation to generation. Pound cake dates back to the early 1700s. It is a staple in the African American community for church anniversaries and funeral repast. It is served by itself or with a glaze or icing. I like mine a few days old and grilled. Sometimes I eat it by itself or with fresh fruits and whipped cream.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt into a medium bowl, then set aside. Cream the butter and sugar in a stand mixer on low speed until it looks pale yellow, about 4 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time. Scrape down the sides after adding each egg. Mix in the vanilla and lemon extracts. Add a third of the flour mixture. Mix well and scrape down the sides. Add half of the sour cream. Mix well and scrape down the sides. Add another third of the flour mixture. Mix well and scrape down the sides. Add the remaining sour cream. Mix well and scrape down the sides. Add the remaining flour. Mix well and scrape down the sides. Use your spatula to scrape the bottom of the mixing bowl to be sure everything is incorporated well.
- Spray a 9-inch Bundt pan well. Pour the batter into the Bundt pan and smooth the top. Bake until golden brown on top, 1 hour 15 minutes. Use a cake tester to check to see if the cake is done; if the tester comes out clean, it's done. If not ready, bake in increments of 5 minutes. Let the cake cool in the Bundt pan for 15 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack and remove the pan to cool completely.
- Grilled pound cake is best with cake that is 3 to 5 days old. Preheat a griddle with lines. Cut slices about 1/2 inch thick. Grill each side for 2 to 3 minutes. (If cooking on an outdoor grill, grill just until grill marks appear, 30 seconds to 1 minute per side.) Serve immediately with fresh berries or a fruit compote.
