Cherry Pound Cake image

This is the BEST cherry pound cake! I have been making this delicious and moist pound cake for years. I have used glace cherries, maraschino cherries and canned bing cherries. It works great with all of them. I have never done it with all of them together though....

Time 1h15m

Yield 1 cake

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup butter
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
4 eggs
2 cups flour
1/2 cup flour
1 cup cherries, drained
3 tablespoons baking powder
1/2 cup chopped nuts

Steps:

  • Grease and flour an 8 inch tube pan. Mix 1/4 cup of flour with the cherries.
  • Cream together the butter, sugar, cream cheese and vanilla. Add eggs, beating in one at a time. Beat well.
  • Sift together flour and baking powder. Gradually add to creamed mixture. Fold in cherries.
  • Sprinkle nuts in prepared pan. Spread batter over. Bake in a preheated 325*F oven for 1 hour and 20 minutes. Let Cool 5 minutes before removing from pan. I have also baked this in two loaf pans with great success! (A shorter baking time is needed of course in that case!).
