Vanilla Buttermilk Pound Cake with Cream Cheese Glaze

For the Cake:3 cups (375 g) all-purpose flour

baking soda

salt

(225 g) unsalted butter, softened

(500 g) granulated sugar

eggs

vanilla extract

(240 ml) buttermilk

For the Cream Cheese Glaze:4 oz (115 g) cream cheese, softened

(120 g) powdered sugar

milk (adjust for desired consistency)

Prepare the Oven and Pan:

Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 10-cup bundt pan or a loaf pan.

Mix Dry Ingredients:

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Cream Butter and Sugar:

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.

Add Eggs and Vanilla:

Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:

Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture in three additions, alternating with the buttermilk (beginning and ending with the dry ingredients). Mix until just combined.

Bake the Cake:

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.

Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Make the Cream Cheese Glaze:

In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and milk, mixing until the glaze is smooth and pourable. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Glaze the Cake:

Once the cake is completely cooled, drizzle the cream cheese glaze over the top.

Serve:

Slice and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Cream Cheese Glaze is the perfect finishing touch to cakes, muffins, pound cakes and more. With only 5 ingredients, it is easy to make this rich and creamy glaze.
