Pound Cake

This Pound Cake is deliciously rich, moist, and full of flavor thanks to a delicious combination of butter, eggs, and vanilla. You can substitute vanilla with another flavor of your choice – I like lemon juice, rum, or almond. You can add extra texture using poppy seeds, shredded coconut, nuts, or dried fruit, too, if you like!

To make this cake, you start by making a typical sponge cake: mix butter and sugar until they are light and fluffy. Then add eggs, sour cream, and vanilla. Gradually add flour and mix well. Transfer the mixture to a baking pan and cook until a skewer comes out clean. Leave to cool in the pan before transferring to a wire rack.

To make Pound Cake, you will need the following ingredients:
