Buttermilk Pound Cake with Strawberries image

This is a tasty, not overly dense, moist cake from Paula Deen's new book. I modified it somewhat in that I used Plugra butter and Butter flavored Crisco and cake flour instead of all purpose.

Time 1h30m

Yield 1 10" bundt cake, 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup vegetable shortening
3 cups sugar
5 eggs, room temperature
1 cup buttermilk, room temperature
1 tablespoon vanilla
2 pints strawberries, hulled and sliced
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup whipping cream, well chilled
1/4 cup sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325; grease and flour 10" tube or bundt pan.
  • sift together flour, soda, baking powder and salt; set aside.
  • Cream butter, shortening and sugar until fluffy, about 5 minutes.
  • Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each; add flour mixture alternately with combined buttermilk and vanilla- beginning and ending with the dry ingredients.
  • Pour into prepared pan and bake 1 1/2 hours or until tests done- toothpick inserted in center comes out clean and cake pulls away from sides of pan.
