Pound Cake

Time

Yield

10 to 12 servings

Ingredients

Ingredients

2 cups cake flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1 cup unsalted butter
1-1/2 cup sugar
4 lg. eggs, at room temperature
3 tbsp. milk
2 tsp. vanilla extract

Instructions

Butter and flour the loaf pan. Sift together the cake flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. In a second bowl (large) beat the butter until it is fluffy, about 2 minutes. Gradually add the sugar and continue beating to cream the butter and sugar for about 2 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the milk and vanilla extract, and blend well. With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the dry ingredients and beat until thoroughly blended, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl occasionally. Pour into loaf pan, and smooth the top. Bake the cake for about 1 hour and ten minutes, or until the top has risen and the cake is brown. Cool 15 minutes on a rack, remove from pan and allow to continue to cool on the rack.
