Ingredients

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 3 cups granulated sugar
• 1.5 cups unsalted butter, at room temperature
• 8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
• 6 large eggs, at room temperature
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 teaspoons baking powder

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease and lightly flour a standard 10-inch bundt pan, ensuring all corners are coated to prevent sticking.

Step 2

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder. Set aside.

Step 3

Using a stand mixer or electric hand mixer, beat the unsalted butter and cream cheese together on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Gradually add the granulated sugar to the butter-cream cheese mixture and continue beating on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, approximately 4-5 minutes.

Step 5

Add the large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed to ensure uniform consistency.

Step 6

Blend in the vanilla extract until combined.

Step 7

Reduce the mixer speed to low and gradually incorporate the dry ingredients in three additions, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing to preserve the cake's tender texture.

Step 8

Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan, smoothing the top with a spatula to ensure an even bake.

Step 9

Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 85-90 minutes, or until a toothpick or skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

Step 10

Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 15-20 minutes. Then, carefully invert the cake onto a wire rack to cool completely before serving.

Step 11

Optional: Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with your favorite glaze for extra sweetness.
