Ultimate Butter Pound Cake image

This is a moist, rich, dense vanilla pound cake that looks beautiful and tastes heavenly. My family requests it often. The ingredients are simple and basic, and making it is a snap. It really is the ultimate served with strawberries and whipped cream!

Time 1h25m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup white sugar
3 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
4 eggs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang over 2 sides.
  • Combine butter, white sugar, brown sugar, vanilla extract, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until fluffy. Beat in flour. Beat in eggs one at a time, scraping the bowl after each addition. Pour batter into a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 45 minutes.
  • Lift cake out of the loaf pan using the overhanging parchment paper. Place on a wire rack and cool completely before slicing, about 30 minutes.
