Step 1

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt or tube pan.

Step 2

Cream the softened butter and cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Gradually pour in the sugar and beat until fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla.

Step 3

Add the flour and gently mix with a spatula to combine.

Step 4

Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake it for 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Start checking for doneness at 1 hour.

Step 5

Let the cake cool in the pan for 2 hours, and then invert it onto a serving plate to cool completely.

Step 6

Slice, serve, and enjoy!
