Tea Time Pound Cake Recipe Video
Pound Cake, nothing says tea time like a great one of these. Just because it sounds heavy doesn’t mean that it has to be, the secret is in the length of time you beat the butter... so don’t scrimp on this step.
The cake will still be dense, but will have an incredible texture and flavour. A heavy duty stand mixer like the KitchenAid we used here is your secret weapon.
Ingredients
3/4 pound cold butter, roughly cut up to give the mixer a head start.
1-1/3 cups sugar
1/4 tsp salt
5 eggs
6 Tbsp milk
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1-1/2 cups flour (all purpose)

minutes.
