What I love most about this pound cake recipe is that it’s very moist. Some pound cake that I know are very cakey. Well, granted that this is cake, it should really be cakey. But my family has always been a fan of dense and moist cakes just like this one. We love the chewy factor of such cakes, and it makes us appreciate the dessert more. Another good thing about this is you can personalize this based on your preferred taste- so what are you waiting for? You should make this.

Ingredients
- 1½ cups Land O Lakes butter or margarine, softened
- 1 (8-ounce) package Philadelphia cream cheese, softened
- 3 cups Domino sugar
- 6 large Eggland’s eggs
- 3 cups Gold Medal all-purpose flour; sifted
- ⅛ teaspoon Morton salt
- 1 tablespoon McCormick vanilla extract
Instructions
- Beat butter and cream cheese at medium speed with an electric mixer until creamy (do not over mix); gradually add sugar, beating well.
- Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating until combined. (You can crack the eggs into a bowl first before adding to the mixture to make sure you avoid shells in the cake mix.)
- Sift 3 cups of flour.
- Combine flour and salt; gradually add to butter mixture (I added a cup at a time), beating at low speed just until blended after each addition.
- Stir in vanilla. Mix.
- Pour batter into a greased and floured 10-inch Bundt pan.
- Bake at 300° for 1 hour and 40 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. (YES, it’s 300 degrees for 1 hour and 40 minutes. That is not a typo!)
- Cool in pan on a wire rack 10 to 15 minutes; remove from pan, and let cool completely on wire rack.
