Pound Cake: Strawberry Cream Cheese Poundcake

Source of Recipe

Internet


List of Ingredients

3/4 pound butter, softened (1 1/2 cup)
1/2 pound cream cheese, softened
2 cups sugar
1 pinch salt
2 teaspoons butter flavoring
6 eggs, room temperature
3 cups sifted flour
1 pint strawberries, sliced


Recipe

Cream the cheese, butter, and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add a pinch of salt and the butter flavoring, and beat the mixture well. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating thoroughly after each addition. Stir in the flour. Gradually add the sliced strawberries, gently folding them in after each addition. Spoon the batter into a buttered and floured cake pan (I use loaf pans or those nice little mini-loaf sizes for gift-giving), and bake the cake in a preheated 325ºF oven for one-and-a-half hours, until the cake begins to shrink from the sides of the pan. Place the pans on cooling racks until cooled; turn cakes gently onto wire racks.
