"ONE BOWL" PERFECT POUND CAKE

This is the perfect pound cake recipe...plus so easy to prepare and only one bowl to wash! This is a firm cake, so if you are into cutting and shaping cakes, this works well. I have used it for christening and communion cakes, creating crosses, etc and used buttercream frosting. I have also made it in a 9 x 13 cake pan...just adjust time accordingly. The addition of the yogurt really makes a difference in the taste.

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

4 c all purpose flour
3 c sugar
2 c butter, room temperature
3/4 c milk
6 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 325, grease and flour a, ten-inch (16-cup) tube cake pan.
2. Layer ingredients in a 4-quart bowl of a heavy duty electric stand mixer in this order, flour, sugar, butter, eggs, milk, vanilla or flavorings you prefer.
3. Beat at low speed just until mixed, stopping to scrape down sides. Do not over mix. About three minutes from start to finish.
4. Pour into greased and floured, ten- inch (16-cup) tube pan and smooth on top. Bake at 325 for 1 hour and 30 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes.

Tips:

Use room temperature ingredients: This will help the ingredients combine more evenly and create a smoother batter.
Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will incorporate air into the batter and make the cake lighter.
Add the eggs one at a time: This will help prevent the batter from curdling.
Be careful not to overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the cake tough.
Bake the cake in a preheated oven: This will help the cake rise evenly.
Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help prevent the frosting from melting.
