Steps:
- Beat butter at medium speed with an electric mixer (not a hand held one) about 2 minutes or until creamy. Gradually add sugar, beating at medium speed 5 to 7 minutes. Combine cake flour and baking soda, and add to butter mixture 1 cup at a time. (Batter will be extremely thick).
- Separate eggs; add yolks to batter, and mix well. Stir in sour cream and vanilla. Beat egg whites until stiff, and fold into batter.
- Spoon into a greased and floured 12-cup Bundt or 10-inch tube pan. Bake at 300F for 2 hours or until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean. (You may also spoon batter into two 9- x 5- x 3-inch loaf pans; bake at 300F for 1 1/2 hours or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean). Cool in pan on wire rack 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from pan; cool completely on wire rack.
- NOTE: Standard Mixing Method: If you are using a handheld mixer or prefer a conventional pound cake method, here's the procedure we suggest.
- Beat butter at medium speed with an electric mixer about 2 minutes or until creamy. Gradually add 3 cups sugar, beating at medium speed 5 to 7 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating just until yellow disappears.
- Combine cake flour and baking soda; add to butter mixture alternately with sour cream, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Mix at lowest speed just until mixture is blended after each addition. Stir in vanilla. Bake as directed.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Grease a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with butter.
- Add the brown sugar, granulated sugar and butter to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment and stir on medium speed until creamed and fully combined. Add the eggs, one at a time, until completely combined. Add the vanilla extract and sour cream and stir until combined.
- Combine the cake flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl with a whisk. Slowly add the dry mixture to the wet mixture in the stand mixer until just combined. Pour this mixture into the prepared loaf pan. Bake until golden brown and cooked through, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and allow to cool to room temperature.
- For the mixed berry compote: Meanwhile, add the blackberries, blueberries, raspberries, granulated sugar, butter and vanilla extract to a medium saucepan and turn the heat on to medium-high. Cook until thickened and syrupy, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and keep warm or let cool to room temperature until ready to serve.
- Remove the pound cake from the loaf pan. Cut slices just under 1 inch thick and shingle the slices on a large platter. Top with the compote and whipped cream and dust with powdered sugar. Garnish with the mint and serve.
SOUR CREAM POUND CAKE
The original pound cake appeared in America's first cookbook and was made with one pound each of butter, sugar, eggs and flour. Now that's a lot of cake! Vintage recipes also suggest separating egg yolks from whites and whipping the whites to stiff peaks before folding them into the cake batter. We tested and didn't feel this extra effort was worth the pay-off. We've scaled down the ingredients and the work involved to make a showpiece cake that is perfect for your next family gathering. The key is the sour cream, which balances the sweetness and ensures your cake remains soft for days! This pound cake is moist, dense and dangerously buttery.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Spray a coated 10- to 14-cup Bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray and dust with flour, making sure to coat all the details of the pan. Invert the pan and shake out any excess.
- Add the butter to a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed until fluffy, about 1 minute. Add the granulated sugar and beat on medium-high speed until very light and fluffy, about 4 minutes more. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition. Add the sour cream and vanilla and mix on medium speed until incorporated.
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Add to the butter mixture in 2 parts and mix on low speed until just incorporated, scraping down the sides of the bowl. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan, using a rubber spatula to smooth the top into an even layer.
- Bake until golden brown and crackly on the surface and a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out almost clean with just a few crumbs, about 1 hour 30 minutes. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 20 minutes. Invert onto a cooling rack and cool completely before removing the pan. The cake will contract while it cools, making it easier to remove.
- Sprinkle the cake with confectioners' sugar. Top each slice with fresh berries if using.

BEST SOUTHERN POUND CAKE
In my husband's small South Carolina home town, decisions about whether to attend a local wedding were often made according to whether "Miss Lorene" was making the cake for the occasion. This is her version of the traditional Southern pound cake. Its texture is truly divine and quite dense. For some occasions, it is iced with 7 minute frosting. You can also use your favorite glaze. Makes nice cupcakes as well.

WONDERFUL BUTTERY MOIST POUND CAKE!
If you are searching for the perfect pound cake, then look no more, this is it!..it's one of THE best recipes for pound cake! This one has a sugar/nut topping sprinkled on top of the cake before baking. Just follow the steps carefully, mix baking powder with warm milk and the baking soda in the lemon juice, I have even used half whipping cream and half and half cream...and you will have a wonderful moist buttery pound cake that you will be making over and over again...I promise! Please, use butter only, and make sure that eggs are at room temperature, yes the flour is mixed in to the creamed mixture before the eggs, there is no mistake on the directions LOL! If you do not want to use the half and half cream, whole full-fat milk may be used in place, but the half and half cream produces a better cake. If you prefer a sweeter cake, then add in another 3-4 tablespoons sugar. I most always serve this with my caramel sauce recipe (#78088) drizzled over the cake.

- Add in eggs (one at a time) mixing well after each addition.
- In a small bowl, whisk the warmed milk with the baking powder, then add into the creamed mixture; mix until combine.

- Delicious!

NANA'S SOUTHERN POUND CAKE
This is my mother's famous pound cake recipe. I have posted it so that my brother and sisters can access it at any time. She used to make this for all the church and school bazaars and it was the first to go. I made it for my school bazaar and got many requests for the recipe. My mother is a southern cook from those bygone years where everyone knew by heart the recipe for a good pound cake. This is hers.
