Often shunned for being too dense, and heavy, pound cake can be much more than that. This recipe uses no leavening other than a good stiff beating to impart a really rich taste.
Ingredients:
3/4 pound cold butter, roughly cut up to give the mixer a head start.
1-1/3 cups sugar
1/4 tsp salt
5 eggs
6 Tbsp milk
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1-1/2 cups flour (all purpose)
Method:
Pre heat oven to 350º
Butter 9x5 loaf pan and line bottom with parchment. Flour sides of pan.
-Combine butter, sugar, salt in a stand mixer with the paddle attachment.
-Beat on high speed for at least 8 minutes until light and fluffy... remember to scrape down the sides of the bowl regularly during this operation.
-In another bowl mix by hand eggs, milk, and vanilla - make sure these are well combined.
-With stand mixer on medium speed, slowly add egg / milk mixture; and continue to beat for about 2 minutes.
-Turn off mixer and add all the flour in one go. Carefully mix flour in on low speed (10-15 seconds). Scrape down sides and repeat.
-Place batter in pan, and bake for 75 minutes, or until tester comes out clean.
-Turn out on a rack to cool.

My mom wants to know why you didn't use making soda or powder
BillieBaby143 5 months ago
@BillieBaby143 Because all the lift or leavening comes mechanically from the air you beat into the mixture, rather than from the chemical reaction produced by baking soda / powder.
