How to Make Almond Cream Cheese Pound Cake

1. Bring 8 ounces of cream cheese to room temperature.
2. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan.
3. In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients: room temperature cream cheese, 2 cups granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon almond extract, 4 large eggs, 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ cup milk.
4. Mix with an electric mixer on low speed for 1 minute, until just combined.
5. Increase mixer speed to medium and beat for 2 minutes, until the batter is smooth and thick.
6. Pour batter into the prepared tube pan and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean and the cake springs back when lightly touched.
7. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
8. Serve your Almond Cream Cheese Pound Cake alone or with fresh berries and sweetened whipped cream.
