Recipe Introduction


Simple & delicious


List of Ingredients





• 1 ½ cups (3 sticks) butter

• 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese

• 3 cups sugar

• 6 eggs

• 3 cups all-purpose flour

• 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract



Recipe



Cut butter and cream cheese into small cubes; allow to soften at room temperature 10 minutes. Thoroughly grease a 10-inch tube pan. Heat oven to 325 degrees.

Beat butter and cream cheese with electric mixer until blended and creamy. Gradually add the sugar, beating until light and fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes. (Rub a small bit of batter between your fingers; you should not feel any sugar grains.)

Beat in eggs one at a time. Add flour, stirring just until incorporated. Stir in vanilla.

Pour batter into prepared pan and bake 1 hour and 45 minutes, until cake tests done. Cool 10 minutes on wire rack before removing from pan. Makes 16 servings.
