EASY POUND CAKE CUPCAKES RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350° and grease a 9”-x-5” loaf pan with cooking spray. In a large bowl with a hand mixer, beat together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition then add vanilla and almond extract.  In a separate large bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and stir until just combined, then add milk and mix until just combined.  Pour batter into prepared loaf pan and smooth top with an offset. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean, about 1 hour. Let cool 10 minutes then invert onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
