How to Make Cream Cheese Pound Cake With Strawberries And Cream
- In a medium bowl, gently toss 1 cup sliced fresh strawberries with 2 tablespoons granulated sugar. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the strawberries to macerate.
- Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 8 ounces cream cheese until light and fluffy. Use an electric mixer on medium speed.
- Gradually add 2 1/2 cups granulated sugar, beating well after each addition.
- Add 4 large eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Pour batter into the prepared tube pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 1 hour and 50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top starts to brown too quickly, loosely tent with foil.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cake cools, prepare the whipped cream topping: In a chilled bowl, beat 1 cup heavy cream and 3 tablespoons powdered sugar with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
- Once the cake is completely cool, slice and serve.
- Top each slice with the chilled macerated strawberries, a dollop of whipped cream, and a drizzle of your homemade strawberry syrup (recipe #43690).
- Garnish as desired (optional).
