Here’s a rich and indulgent recipe for the famously named “Slap Ya Momma Pound Cake” — a buttery, moist pound cake with a hint of vanilla and a tender crumb:
🍰 Slap Ya Momma Pound Cake
🛒 Ingredients (Serves 8–10)
- 2 cups (4 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- 3 cups granulated sugar
- 6 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 cup whole milk, room temperature
🔪 Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat Oven
- Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C).
- Grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt pan or 9×5-inch loaf pan.
2️⃣ Cream Butter & Sugar
- In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy (about 5 minutes).
3️⃣ Add Eggs & Vanilla
- Beat in eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated.
- Mix in vanilla extract.
4️⃣ Combine Dry Ingredients
- In a separate bowl, whisk flour and salt.
5️⃣ Alternate Adding Flour & Milk
- Gradually add dry ingredients in three parts, alternating with milk in two parts.
- Mix gently until just combined — do not overmix.
6️⃣ Bake
- Pour batter into prepared pan and smooth the top.
- Bake 75–90 minutes (Bundt pan) or 60–70 minutes (loaf pan), until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Cool in pan 10–15 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
🌟 Tips
- Room-temperature ingredients help create a smooth, even batter.
- Optional flavor twist: Add 1 tsp almond extract, a swirl of cream cheese, or a handful of chocolate chips for variation.
- Serving suggestion: Serve plain, dusted with powdered sugar, or with a simple glaze.
