How to Make Cloverbloom Pound Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  2. Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened Cloverbloom butter (or unsalted butter) until light and fluffy. This is best done with a stand mixer.
  3. Gradually add 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar, creaming well after each addition.
  4. In a separate bowl, beat 4 large egg yolks until thick and lemon-colored. Gently fold the yolks into the butter-sugar mixture.
  5. In a clean bowl, beat 4 large egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter in three additions.
  6. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the batter until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  7. Stir in 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract.
  8. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 65-75 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top begins to brown too quickly, loosely tent with foil.
  9. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
