Ingredients
This delicious chocolate pound cake recipe from Joy of Baking is sure to be a hit. To make this recipe, you will need the following ingredients:
- 1/2 cup (115 grams) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup (100 grams) granulated white sugar
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup (65 grams) all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup (25 grams) unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) sour cream, at room temperature
Instructions
This chocolate pound cake recipe is easy to prepare. Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch (23x13 cm) loaf pan. In the bowl of your electric mixer (or with a hand mixer), beat the butter until creamy. Add the sugar and beat until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating until each one is fully incorporated. Beat in the vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and cocoa powder. Add this to the butter mixture, alternating with the sour cream, and beat until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for about 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool the cake in the pan for 10 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely. The cake can be served plain, or with a dusting of powdered sugar, or with a chocolate glaze.
