A homemade pound cake is an easy dessert that uses just a few pantry staples!
Ingredients :
1 cup unsalted butter softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 large eggs room temperature
1 ⅔ cups all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon salt
Directions :
Preheat the oven to 325°F. Grease an 8×4-inch loaf pan.
With a hand or stand mixer, cream butter, sugar, and vanilla until very light and fluffy, about 7-8 minutes. Add eggs one at a time and beat to combine after each addition.
Combine flour and salt. Add the flour mixture a little bit at a time to the butter mixture, beating just until combined after each addition.
Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Remove the pound cake from the pan and cool completely on a wire rack.
