A simple classic, this really is the best pound cake recipe! While pound cake has traditionally been made with a pound each of butter, sugar, eggs, and flour, I've made some small adjustments for the best flavor (hello, vanilla extract!). We've refined that concept into an ideal recipe that captures the buttery flavor, dense texture and just-right sweetness that everyone looks for in a pound cake. This classic vanilla pound cake is moist, soft and delicious with a tender crumb. Better than the traditional vanilla pound cake recipe because I give it a little more lightness by whipping the eggs and adding some milk.
