Please welcome my contributor Kay as she shares her recipe for a Cream Cheese Pound Cake.
With the promise of spring in the air, I am starting to think about summery foods… BBQ’s, picnics, and pound cake with strawberries! This recipe is extra delicious with the addition of cream cheese to the batter. You can serve it with berries, chocolate syrup, or the way I like it – plain and simple.
I had a cute bundt pan that I baked it in, but any tube pan will work. Just be sure to oil and flour the pan well, so it doesn’t stick! Here is the batter before it was baked. It is a fairly thick batter.
