• For best results, use ingredients that are at room temperature when making the batter.
• Do NOT open the oven door while baking until it is time to test it.
• The cake is done when a toothpick inserted into it comes out clean.
• Allow your cake to completely cool before removing from pan.
• You can use this recipe to makecupcakes too. Just fill cupcake liners 2/3 full and bake for 20-22 minutes.

How to Store Leftover Pound Cake

Leftover cake should be wrapped tightly in cling wrap and left on your kitchen counter. If you wish to refrigerate the leftover cake, make sure to place it in an airtight container. Cake can be stored on the counter or in the fridge for up to five days.

Like many cakes, this pound cake freezes great! Wrap leftover cake tightly with plastic wrap, then place in a freezer bag or wrap over again with aluminum foil, and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight on your kitchen counter when ready to enjoy.

About the Ingredients for Whipped Cream Pound Cake

Cake flour – If you don’t have any cake flour on hand you can use all-purpose flour with cornstarch to achieve the fluffiness that cake flour gives this cake. To make your own cake flour substitute, measure out your flour, then remove 3 Tablespoons. Add back in 3 Tablespoons of cornstarch. Then sift your flour twice over so it is nice and fluffy like cake flour. Ready to use! Spoon and level the flour when measuring it, otherwise you’ll wind up with a dense cake.

Butter – Room temperature butter, if you use salted, reduce the additional salt. Don’t substitute with oil or margarine, the butter brings a lot of flavour.

Sugar – Just plain old white granulated sugar to sweeten the cake.

Eggs – Must be at room temperature for best results!

Cream – Use only heavy cream here. The extra fat helps make the cake rich but light.

Vanilla Extract – Use pure vanilla extract for the best flavour, but artificial is just fine too.

Powdered sugar – For dusting. This is optional, you can omit if you like.

How to Make Whipped Cream Pound Cake

Yields: 6-8 servings | Prep Time: 15 minutes | Bake Time: 1 hour and 20 minutes

Ingredients:

• 3 ½ cups Cake flour
• 1½ cups Unsalted butter, room temperature
• 3 cups Granulated Sugar
• 6 Eggs, room temperature
• 1 cup Heavy whipping cream, room temperature
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Powdered Sugar

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a standard bundt pan and set aside.

In the bowl of a stand mixer, add the butter and granulated sugar. Mix together on high until creamy and smooth.

Add eggs one at a time and mix on medium until each egg is well combined.

Add the vanilla extract to the butter mixture and blend on medium until well combined.

Slowly add the cake flour, one cup at a time, and mix on medium until well combined.

Add the heavy whipping cream to the cake mixture, and mix until well combined.

Pour the batter in the bundt pan. Gently tap the bundt pan on the counter to release any trapped air.

Place the bundt pan in the middle rack of your oven and bake for 1 hour 20 minutes. Insert a toothpick in the center of the cake and check if the stick comes out clean.

Remove cake from the oven and set it on the kitchen counter to cool down before turning it upside down to remove from the pan.
