YOUTUBE POUND CAKE RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Put oven rack in middle position, but do not preheat oven.
• Generously butter pan and dust with flour, knocking out excess flour.
• Sift together sifted flour (3 cups) and salt into a bowl. Repeat sifting into another bowl (flour will have been sifted 3 times total).
• Beat together butter (2 sticks) and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer at medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 5 minutes in a stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment or 6 to 8 minutes with a handheld mixer. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition, then beat in vanilla. Reduce speed to low and add half of flour, then all of cream, then remaining flour, mixing well after each addition. Scrape down side of bowl, then beat at medium-high speed 5 minutes. Batter will become creamier and satiny.
• Spoon batter into pan and rap pan against work surface once or twice to eliminate air bubbles. Place pan in (cold) oven and turn oven temperature to 350°F. Bake until golden and a wooden pick or skewer inserted in middle of cake comes out with a few crumbs adhering, 1 to 1 1/4 hours. Cool cake in pan on a rack 30 minutes. Run a thin knife around inner and outer edges of cake, then invert rack over pan and invert cake onto rack to cool completely.

Steps:

• Make cake: Preheat oven to 325° and grease a loaf pan with cooking spray. In a large bowl using a hand mixer, beat butter and cream cheese together. Add sugar and beat until combined. Add eggs and almond extract and beat until incorporated. 
• In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Add to wet ingredients and mix until just combined. 
• Pour batter into prepared pan and bake until golden and a toothpick inserted in middle comes out clean, about 1 hour and 20 minutes. If top starts to get too dark loosely cover with foil. Let cool 10 minutes then flip onto a cooling rack to let cool completely. 
• Make the glaze: In a small bowl, mix together powdered sugar, cream, orange juice, and zest. Pour over cooled cake. Let set for 10 minutes before slicing.
