Ken was raised the middle child in a family of 10 on a small southern farm. With a busy mom, he soon found that if he wanted to eat, he better learn to cook. Well learn he did! I can honestly say, Ken is the best cook I have ever met. His recipes are simple yet uniquely southern and full of flavor. Each month I will feature one of his famous recipes but don't miss out; it will only be on line for one month before a new one takes it's place. |
It's peach harvest and back to school time here in the Ozarks so we wanted something good to go with peaches. Here is a wonderful pound cake that is easy to make and is great topped with fruit or even preserves. It lasts several days and the kids will love it as a treat when they come home from school. Farm fresh eggs will give it a wonderful golden color and the whole wheat offers a healthy alternative dessert. The one in this picture was made with whole wheat but most people are surprised when I tell them because they just love it, whole wheat or not. If you don't want whole wheat though, you can substitute unbleached all purpose flour for the wheat flour.
CREAM CHEESE POUND CAKE
1
& 1/2 Stick of Butter (Don't substitute)
Preheat your oven to 325 and grease and flour a loaf pan.
In a large bowl, combine first 2 ingredients (it might help to let them soften). Mix well. Gradually add sugar, beat about 5 minutes or until fluffy. The cake has no baking powder so its the air you beat into the batter that makes it rise so don't skimp on this step. Add eggs one at a time while mixing and then add flour a little at a time. Add vanilla and beat well.
Pour the batter into the loaf pan and place on the top shelf near the middle of the oven and set your kitchen timer for 1 hour and 35 minutes. Depending on your oven and altitude, you may need to cut the time by 5 minutes or add time. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes and then enjoy!
