Recipe: Cream Cheese Pound Cake

I’m kind of proud of myself. Wanna know why? Well, one of my New Year’s Resolutions was to make a recipe from my Pinterest account once a month. And I’ve accomplished that for the month of January.

And this, my friends, was my first recipe. And let me tell you, it was the freakin’ bomb-diggity. I made Cream Cheese Pound Cake and found the recipe here.

It was easy. It was fun. It was fattening.

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups butter, softened at room temp

1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened at room temp

3 cups sugar

6 large eggs

3 cups all-purpose flour

1/8 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Step 1: Put the three sticks of butter and packet of cream cheese into a bowl. I melted them a little in the microwave.

Step 2: Add six eggs, three cups of flour, three cups of sugar, and the salt while mixing.

Step 3: Add the vanilla extract while mixing

Step 4: Put the batter into a 10 inch baking pan and spread evenly.

Bake in the oven at 350 degree for 1 hour and 40 minutes. It should slide out of the pan easily after letting sit for 15 minutes.

This is me having a forgasm. What I like to call a food orgasm.
