How to make Pound Cake
- Step 1 Beat eggs, milk, butter and vanilla to form a wet mixture for the cakeTo make this delicious cake, preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. While the oven is being heated, take a medium-sized mixing bowl and whisk together milk, eggs, butter and vanilla extract. Blend the mixture really well.
- Step 2 Prepare the dry flour mixture and combine with egg-milk mixtureIn another bowl, add cake flour, salt, sugar and baking powder together. Mix well. Now transfer the dry mixture into the bowl of an electric mixer. Add half of the wet mixture into the dry one and blend for a minute or until the mixture is somewhat moistened. Slowly, add the other half of the wet mixture and beat for about 30 seconds more. Make sure not to over-mix. You now have a batter for the pound cake.
- Step 3 Bake the cake to perfectionGrease the oven loaf pan with some refined oil and spread the batter into it. Using a spatula, even out the surface of the batter. Throw the loaf pan into the hot oven and bake for 30 minutes or until the colour of the cake turns golden. Check the cake by stabbing a toothpick into it. If the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is perfectly baked.
- Step 4 Serve cake and enjoy it freshAllow the pound cake to cool and then transfer it to a wire rack to completely cool down. Refrigerate the cake or enjoy it fresh!
