Time 1h45m

Yield Makes two 9-inch loaves

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for pans
3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
2 cups sugar
6 large eggs
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter two standard 9-by 5-inch loaf pans. Line with parchment, leaving a 2-inch overhang on long sides.
  • Sift flour and salt into a medium bowl. In the bowl of a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together butter and cream cheese on medium speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. With mixer running, gradually add sugar, then increase speed to high and beat until light and airy, 4 to 5 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. Gradually add flour mixture, beating just until combined.
  • Divide batter between prepared pans. Using a small offset spatula, slightly mound batter in center of each pan to encourage rising. Bake until tops are golden brown and testers inserted into centers come out clean, 70 to 85 minutes. Transfer pans to a wire rack and let cool 20 minutes, then invert cakes onto rack and let cool completely.

For best results, bake these cakes at least a day before serving. Store, wrapped in plastic, for up to three days at room temperature, or freeze for up to three months.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cake Recipes

Time 1h45m

Yield Makes 2

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 bar (8 ounces) cream cheese, room temperature
3 cups sugar
6 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons salt
Nonstick cooking spray

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. With an electric mixer, beat butter and cream cheese until smooth. Add sugar; beat until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in vanilla. With mixer on low, add flour and salt in two additions, beating until just combined.
  • Generously coat two 8 1/2-by-4 1/2- by-2 1/2-inch loaf pans (1 1/2 quarts each) with cooking spray; immediately pour in batter (pan will seem full). Tap pans on work surface to eliminate any large air bubbles.
  • Bake until golden and a toothpick inserted in the centers comes out almost clean, 60 to 75 minutes (if the tops begin to brown too quickly, tent with aluminum foil).
  • Cool 10 minutes in the pan. Turn out the cakes; cool completely, with top sides up, on a wire rack.

Tips:

  • Oven Temperature: Make sure your oven is preheated to the correct temperature before baking the pound cake. An accurate oven temperature ensures even baking and prevents the cake from over or under-baking.
  • Creaming Butter and Sugar: Creaming butter and sugar together until light and fluffy is crucial. This step incorporates air into the mixture, resulting in a tender and moist cake. Creaming also helps dissolve the sugar crystals, preventing a grainy texture.
  • Gradually Add Eggs: Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This prevents the eggs from curdling and ensures they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  • Measuring Flour: To ensure accurate measurements, use a kitchen scale to weigh the flour instead of using measuring cups. This method provides more precise results and prevents adding too much or too little flour, which can affect the texture of the cake.
  • Mixing Batter: Avoid over-mixing the batter once you've added the flour. Over-mixing can develop the gluten in the flour, resulting in a tough and dense cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Baking Time: Baking time can vary depending on the size and shape of your baking pan. Insert a toothpick into the center of the cake to check for doneness. If it comes out clean, the cake is ready. Over-baking can dry out the cake.
  • Cooling the Cake: Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting or serving. This helps the cake to set properly and prevents the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

Creating a delicious and decadent cream cheese pound cake requires careful attention to detail and following the recipe's instructions precisely. Remember to preheat your oven accurately, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy, add eggs gradually, measure flour correctly, avoid over-mixing the batter, bake the cake until done (checking with a toothpick), and allow the cake to cool completely before frosting or serving. By following these tips and the recipe's guidance, you can achieve a moist, flavorful, and visually appealing cream cheese pound cake that will impress your family and friends.
