How to Make Coconut Cream Cheese Pound Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, shortening, and cream cheese until light and fluffy. Use an electric mixer for best results.
  3. Gradually add the sugar, beating on medium speed until well combined.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  7. Stir in the shredded coconut and vanilla extract.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared tube pan and spread evenly.
  9. Bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
