Zubereitung von Basic Pound Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy. This will take about 3-5 minutes with an electric mixer.
- Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, then add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour and ½ teaspoon baking powder.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once completely cool, slice and serve. Enjoy!
