How to Make 7 Up Pound Cake

1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 12-cup bundt pan.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
3. In a large mixer bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 2 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 5 minutes).
4. Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with 1 cup 7 Up, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
6. Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan.
7. Bake for 100-110 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
