Sour Cream Pound Cake Instructions

  • Prep your oven preheating the oven at 325° Fahrenheit. Prep your desired cake pan by lightly coating the pan with oil.
  • In a large bowl, cream your butter and sugar together until smooth using a hand mixer or stand mixer.
  • Add one egg at a time into your creamed butter and sugar mixture making sure everything is mixed well.
  • Slowly add your flour, baking soda and salt and continue to mix until pound cake batter is smooth.
  • Add in sour cream and vanilla. Mix well.
  • Pour your pound cake batter into your prepped cake pan. Bake the cake in your 325° Fahrenheit oven for 1-1.5 hours. Check the cake to see if it is fully cooked by inserting a toothpick into the center of the cake and if the tooth pick comes out clean then the cake is fully cooked.
    Let cake cool. Optional step is to pour glaze on top of cake once cooled.

OPTIONAL Glaze Instructions

  • In a bowl, use a whisk or hand mixer to mix together confectioners sugar and milk until smooth.
  • If glaze is too stiff, add 1 tablespoon of milk at a time until glaze is at your desired texture. If glaze is too runny, add 1 tablespoon of confectioners sugar at a time until glaze is at your desired texture.
