Default Cream Cheese Pound Cake

Recipe doubles easily to make two loaves or one (12 cup) bundt cake.

Cream Cheese Pound Cake
()
1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature
4 ounces (1/2 block) cream cheese, room temperature
1 1/2 cups sugar
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
Preheat the oven to 325°F. Lightly butter and flour one standard loaf pan.
Place butter and cream cheese in a large bowl and beat with a mixer until smooth. Add the sugar and increase the mixer speed to high. Beat for approximately five minutes until light and airy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition, scraping down the sides of the bowl after every other egg. Add the vanilla and almond extract and mix until incorporated. Add flour and salt and mix until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth out the top. Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the cake comes out clean, approximately 70 minutes.
Place the pan on a cake rack and cool in the pan for 20 minutes Remove the cake from the pan cool completely. Serve at room temperature. Makes 8 generous servings. Recipe doubles easily to make two loaves or one (12 cup) bundt cake.

EDITED TO ADD ON MY COLD OVEN POUND CAKE RECIPE.....better use a 12-cup bundt pan or large tube pan that is generally used for angel cakes, instead of using the 10-cup bundt pan that is stated in recipe.
