Always a crowd-pleaser, Sour Cream Pound Cake Recipe is soft, moist and buttery.

Provided by Paula

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup real butter (no substitutions, I like this.)
3 cups granulated sugar
6 large eggs (room temperature)
8 ounces sour cream (room temperature)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
3 cups all-purpose flour (I use this.)
1 tablespoon vanilla extract (I use this.)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Coat a 10-inch tube pan or bundt pan with solid vegetable shortening and sugar or cake release spray.
  • In the bowl of an electric stand mixer, cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Stop the mixer and scrape the sides. Mix to combine.
  • Add eggs one at a time beating each one in before adding the next. Stop the mixer and scrape the sides. Mix to combine.
  • Stir in sour cream.
  • Combine flour, salt, and baking powder in a small bowl then add to batter 1/2 cup at a time until combined.
  • Stir in vanilla. Stop the mixer and scrape the sides. Combine again.
  • Spoon batter into prepared pan.
  • Bake 325°f for 80 to 85 minutes. I always like to start testing at 75 minutes. Carefully insert a long wooden pick into the center of the cake. The cake is done when dry crumbs or no crumbs stick to the pick. (I recommend you Calibrate your Oven once a year so that the time showing is the actual temperature inside. The cooking time stated is for my oven and my pan both affect cooking time. Therefore, I recommend you watch your cake closely the first time you bake this recipe. Make notes for when you make it again. As well as using the toothpick test to determine when a cake is done, you may want to get this cake thermometer. It is done when the cake reads 210°F
  • When you remove the cake from the oven, run a thin knife around the edge. Then place the cake (in the pan) on a wire rack.
  • Allow the cake to cool in the pan on a wire rack for 20 to 25 minutes before inverting on a tray to cool completely.

SOUR CREAM POUND CAKE



Sour Cream Pound Cake image

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.

Time 2h30m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Nonstick cooking spray, for the pan
3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for the pan
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 1/2 cups granulated sugar
3 large eggs, at room temperature
1 cup sour cream
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
Confectioners' sugar, for serving
Fresh berries, for serving, optional

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.
