SOUTHERN SOUR CREAM POUND CAKE
There is nothing like an old school and basic but very delicious pound cake. This cake is and moist and delicious and the sour cream works to give the cake the tangy zing in its taste. A few useful cooking tips--bake this cake a day or two prior to serving to allow the flavors to set well. Also never bake this cake in a loaf pan because the cook time is too long and the cake will dry out. Also adjust the flavorings to your liking if you prefer more vanilla/less almond extract or you want to substitute/add lemon extract (I have seen other pound cake recipes with all three extracts but I personally prefer almond flavoring and more of it).

SOUR CREAM POUND CAKE
Because I'm our town's postmaster, I can bake only in my spare time. When I do, I especially like this sour cream pound cake recipe. This one tastes great as is, or tucked under ice cream and chocolate syrup like a hot fudge sundae! -Karen Conrad, East Troy, Wisconsin

Tips:
- Soften butter completely: For easy creaming and perfect texture, ensure your butter is at room temperature. It should be soft enough to leave an indentation when pressed with a finger, but not melted.
- Cream the butter and sugar: Properly creaming the butter and sugar is essential to incorporate air into the mixture, resulting in a light and fluffy cake. Cream them together until light and pale in color, with no grains of sugar visible.
- Add eggs one at a time: Gradually adding the eggs, one at a time, helps emulsify the mixture and prevent curdling. Beat well after each addition until the egg is fully incorporated.
- Don't overmix: Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are well combined, avoiding overdevelopment of gluten in the flour.
- Use sour cream at room temperature: Allowing the sour cream to come to room temperature before using helps ensure even incorporation into the batter. Cold sour cream can cause the batter to curdle.
- Bake in a preheated oven: Always preheat your oven to the desired temperature before placing the cake in. This helps ensure even baking and prevents a sunken cake.
- Let the cake cool completely: Before serving or frosting the cake, allow it to cool completely in the pan. This helps prevent crumbling and ensures the cake holds its structure.
Conclusion:
With its moist and fluffy texture, rich flavor, and classic simplicity, this old-fashioned sour cream pound cake is a timeless delight. Whether enjoyed as a comforting breakfast treat, an elegant dessert, or a special occasion centerpiece, this cake is sure to be a cherished favorite. Its versatility also shines through, as it pairs wonderfully with various frostings, glazes, and fresh fruits, making it a customizable delight for any palate or celebration.
