🍰 Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups unsalted butter, softened
- 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
- 3 cups granulated sugar
- 6 large eggs
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- ½ cup milk
🍰 Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat the oven:
Preheat your oven to 160°C (325°F).
Grease and flour a bundt pan or tube pan very well.
2️⃣ Cream the butter and cream cheese:
In a large bowl, beat together the butter and cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
3️⃣ Add the sugar:
Gradually beat in the sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy (about 4–5 minutes).
4️⃣ Add eggs:
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
5️⃣ Mix dry ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
6️⃣ Combine:
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients.
Mix just until incorporated.
7️⃣ Add vanilla:
Stir in the vanilla extract.
8️⃣ Bake:
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
Bake for 70–80 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
(If the top is browning too quickly, tent with foil halfway through.)
9️⃣ Cool:
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
