Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ cups (340 g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 8 oz (226 g) full-fat cream cheese, softened
  • 2 ½ cups (500 g) granulated sugar
  • 6 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 3 cups (375 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Butter and flour a 10 to 12 cup bundt pan.
  2. Beat butter and cream cheese until smooth, then add sugar and beat until pale and fluffy, about 3 to 4 minutes.
  3. Add eggs one at a time, beating after each, then vanilla with the last egg.
  4. Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl. Add to the butter mixture in three additions on low speed, mixing just until combined.
  5. Spoon the batter into the pan, smooth the top, and bake for 70 to 80 minutes until a skewer comes out clean.
  6. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then invert onto a rack to cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.

Notes

The cake slices more cleanly after it has cooled completely, but it tastes wonderful still slightly warm. For the cleanest release, take an extra minute to brush every fold of the pan with softened butter and dust it with flour; tap out any excess.
