Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 2.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 5 Large eggs
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Sundrop soda
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Lemon extract (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt or tube pan.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together using a hand or stand mixer set to medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition to fully incorporate them into the mixture.
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the Sundrop soda. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined after each addition.
Stir in the vanilla extract and optional lemon extract, ensuring the batter is smooth and well-blended.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 75 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 15-20 minutes. Then, carefully invert it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Once fully cooled, slice and enjoy your delicious Sundrop Pound Cake!
