Southernpoundcake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Generously grease and flour a 10-inch bundt or tube pan.
• Cream butter and sugar in a large mixing bowl at medium speed. Blend until mixture is light and fluffy and sugar is no longer granulated. (About ten minutes).
• Add vanilla & almond extracts, scraping sides of bowl so it is thoroughly incorporated.
• Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each egg is added.
• Add sour cream all at once and blend thoroughly.
• Sift flour, baking soda and salt into small bowl (A wire whisk works perfectly to sift/mix dry ingredients). Slowly add flour mixture and continue beating until mixture is smooth and well blended. (Add by approximately three parts-roughly 1-cup additions).
• Pour batter into the well-greased and floured bundt or tube pan.
• Bake for 1 hour or until toothpick inserted near center comes out clean. Cool in pan for 5 minutes and then invert pan onto wire rack and cool completely.

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.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Combine butter, Crisco, sugar, flour and salt in mixing bowl and beat well with electric mixer.
• Add milk gradually.
• Add eggs, 2 at a time, beating well after each addition.
• Add baking powder and vanilla and mix well.
• Pour batter in 10" tube pan, bottom of which has been lined with waxed paper and greased.
• Bake 1 hour or until cake tests done.

Steps:

• Do not preheat the oven. Grease and flour the bottom, sides and tube of a 9-inch tube cake pan.
• Cream the butter and sugar until smooth. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition, but do not overbeat. Set the mixer on slow speed and stir in the flour and cream alternately, beginning and ending with the flour. Add the vanilla and stir well.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan and put the cake in a cold oven. Set the oven temperature to 325 degrees F. Begin timing now and bake the cake for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Test of doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center of the cake. The toothpick should be clean when it is removed. Cool in the pan for 30 minutes, then turn out onto a rack to continue cooling.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 8-inch round cake pans.
• Mix butter, milk, coconut milk, and vanilla extract together in a large bowl. Combine flour, sugar, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl. Slowly mix into the milk mixture. Add egg yolks one at a time, beating well after each addition.
• Divide batter between the prepared cake pans.
• Bake cakes in the preheated oven until tops are golden yellow and spring back when lightly pressed, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Prepare frosting while cakes are baking. Combine sugar, evaporated milk, butter, egg yolks, and flour in a saucepan. Heat over medium-low, stirring constantly, until mixture starts to thicken. Add vanilla and stir for 1 minute. Pour in pecans; cook and stir for 2 minutes more.
• Remove frosting from heat and let cool. Remove cakes from the oven and set aside to cool, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Place 1 cooled cake layer on a serving plate. Cover with some of the cooled frosting. Top with the second cake layer. Frost top and sides with remaining frosting.
