Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 5 pieces large eggs
- 0.5 cup whole milk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and grease and flour a standard 10-inch bundt pan or tube pan, ensuring the cake releases cleanly after baking.
In the bowl of your KitchenAid stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the softened butter, sugar, flour, eggs, milk, vanilla extract, baking powder, and salt. Start mixing on low speed for 30 seconds to avoid flour splatter, then increase to medium speed and beat until the batter is smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 70-75 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
Allow the pound cake to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before carefully turning it out onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
