Instructions to make Basic Pound Cake:
- Preheat oven to 170Ā°C. Grease a loaf tin and line the base and long sides with baking paper.
- Beat the softened Butter in a mixing bowl with a whisk or an electric mixer until smooth. Add Sugar and beat until creamy.
- Add Eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. If the Eggs are not warm enough, the mixture will curdle. If that happens, try to stand the bowl in warm water, stirring constantly, for 30 seconds, then continue beating until the batter becomes smooth and creamy.
- Gently fold in Flour with a spatula or large metal spoon until just combined. DO NOT over-mix.
- Spoon the mixture into the loaf tin and smooth the surface. *Note: I tend to spread the middle part thinner and the edges thicker.
- Bake in preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until cooked through. Stand the cake in the pan for 5 minutes as it is very soft, then turn onto a wire rack to cool.
