Categories     Cake

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

210 grams (1 and 1/2 cups) plain flour or all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
150 grams (3/4 cup) caster sugar or granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
120 ml (1/2 cup) vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 large egg
240 ml (1 cup) full fat sour cream
115 grams (1/2 cup or 1 stick) butter, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
375 grams (3 cups) icing sugar or powdered sugar, sifted
60 ml (1/4 cup) full fat sour cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 180 C (350 F) standard / 160 C (320 F) fan-forced. Grease and line an 8-inch round cake pan with baking or parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. In a separate bowl, add oil, vanilla and egg. Beat briefly with fork just to break up the egg yolk.
  • Add to dry ingredients along with the sour cream and stir to combine. The cake batter will be very thick (see photo below) - this is ok.
  • Transfer cake batter to your cake pan and gently smooth the top. Bake cake for approximately 35-40 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean.
  • Leave cake to cool slightly before carefully removing from cake pan and leaving on a wire rack to cool completely.
  • To make the frosting, add butter to a large mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes or until smooth and creamy. Add vanilla and sugar and beat slowly until it starts to come together. Add sour cream and continue to beat until smooth.
  • Cover top of cake with sour cream frosting and serve.

Because I'm our town's postmaster, I can bake only in my spare time. When I do, I especially like this sour cream pound cake recipe. This one tastes great as is, or tucked under ice cream and chocolate syrup like a hot fudge sundae! -Karen Conrad, East Troy, Wisconsin
