Buttery 2-Step Pound Cake- USA#39

It doesn't get any easier than this in making a cake. I have a pound cake recipe that has been passed down from generation to generation. It has more steps than this version. I needed a quick and easy cake to make for a crowd. I found this on the internet. I wanted to see if family members could tell the difference between the 2 recipes. Only one person said it tasted a little different. Everyone else thought it was the family recipe. So, I'm adding this to my baking repertoire. One more note, the crunchy edge is the favorite part.

Ingredients:

4 c. all-purpose flour
3 c. sugar
2 c. (4 sticks/1lb) butter, room temperature
3/4 c. milk
6 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla extract

  1. Preheat oven 325F. Grease and flour a 10" funnel pan. In mixer bowl, layer ingredients in order, beginning with flour and ending with vanilla. Beat for 1 minute on low speed. Stop and scrape bowl. Beat 2 more minutes.
  2. Pour into funnel pan and smooth. Bake 1hr.30mins. or until wooden pick comes out clean. Cool 10mins. Turn and flip cake. Cool completely.

Results: Quick and easy. It was delicious. The crusty edges were fought over.

Bottom Line: Anyone can make this.

Please share this quick and easy recipe and this awesome blog.
