Hate to pick favorites, y’all, but this one’s a no-brainer. Cream Cheese Pound Cake: -Cooking spray -3 cups (11 1⁄4 ounces / 317 g) bleached cake flour, such as Swans Down, plus more for tube pan -3 cups (600 g) granulated sugar -1 1⁄2 cups (12 ounces / 340 g) salted butter, softened -1 (8-ounce / 226-g) package cream cheese, softened -6 large eggs -2 teaspoons bourbon -2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice (from 1 lemon) -1 teaspoon vanilla extract -1⁄2 teaspoon almond extract -1⁄4 teaspoon kosher salt -Coat a light-colored 18-cup / 4.3-L (10-inch / 25-cm) tube pan with cooking spray and lightly dust with flour. Set aside. Do not preheat oven. In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat sugar and butter on medium-high speed until mixture is light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in cream cheese until smooth, about 30 seconds. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating on low speed until just combined. -Add flour, 1 cup (125 g) at a time, beating on low speed until blended after each addition, about 1 minute total, and stopping to scrape down sides of bowl as needed. Beat in bourbon, lemon juice, vanilla, almond extract, and salt until smooth. Transfer batter to prepared pan and smooth top. -Place on rack in lower third of a cold, un-preheated oven. Turn oven on to 300°F and bake until a wooden pick inserted into center of the cake comes out clean, 1 hour, 50 minutes to 2 hours. Let cool in pan 30 minutes. Run an offset spatula around edges of cake to loosen; remove from pan and let cool completely on a wire rack, about 1 hour, 30 minutes. #poundcakerecipe #creamcheesepoundcake #southernbaking
