This old-fashioned sour cream cake has a beautiful golden sweet crust and is soft but dense on the inside. And the mix of vanilla and almond flavors is to die for!
Happy (almost) July 4th!! This weekend means good food, time with friends and family, and of course, fireworks ! We start the festivities with a few slices of this old-fashioned sour cream pound cake. Once you’ve eaten this cake, you’ll also want our vanilla pound cake, pistachio pound cake and cranberry orange pound cake!
Our favorite sour cream pound cake.
It’s a family recipe from my husband’s side of the family, and it’s a recipe I absolutely love! My mother-in-law makes this pound cake all the time… and for good reason! It has a beautiful sweet golden crust, and it’s soft but dense on the inside. And the mix of vanilla and almond flavors is to die for!
And if you’re curious as to why it’s called a pound cake (because I always thought it was a funny name for a cake!), it’s because it was made with one pound of flour, one pound of sugar, one pound of eggs and one pound of butter! No wonder I LOVE this cake so much
