With soft, buttery crumb, this pound cake is perfectly dense. Not at all dry or crumbly, like maybe those you’ve tried before. This delicious cake sure will make you love this cake a lot more! Traditional pound cake is made with butter, sugar, eggs, and flour, but I added a little twist (vanilla extract!) that enhances its flavour a million times! And the simple frosting is just lovely!
Ingredients

How to make Famous Pound Cake
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 350 degrees.
Step 2: Grease generously with Baker’s Joy your tube bundt pan.
Step 3: In a mixing bowl, combine the cake ingredients; cake mix, cupcake flour, sugar, sour cream, butter, eggs, oil, water, vanilla extract, butter flavouring, and almond extract until smooth, making sure to not overmix the batter.
Step 4: Transfer the batter into the prepared pan and place inside the preheated oven. Bake for about 55 to 65 minutes or until a fork or toothpick inserted in the centre of the cake comes out clean.
Step 5: Once done, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool for at least 10 to 15 minutes before inverting it to a serving dish.
Step 6: Meanwhile, whisk the powdered sugar and lemon juice until you reached your desired texture.
Step 7: Pour the glaze over the slightly cooled cake. Use the back of a spoon to spread the glaze a little at a time letting it soak into the warm cake.
Step 8: Serve the cake warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
