Welcome to my At Home cooking channel, I'm not a professional cook... but I like to cook at home and I wanted to share some of my recipes and cooking ideas with you all! Subscribe and see what - Tracey Makes

2 sticks of unsalted butter (room temp) Use 2 1/2 sticks of butter, if not using Heavy Whipping Cream
8 oz cream cheese (room temp) *I used Philadelphia Cream Cheese
1/2 cup shortening (room temp) * I used Crisco shortening bars
5 Eggs (room temp)
1 tsp Pure Vanilla ext
3 cups granulated sugar *I used C&H Pure Cane Sugar
3 cups Cake Flour (sifted)
1 tsp Baking Powder (sifted)
1/4 tsp Fine Sea salt (sifted)

*Optional*
1 cup Heavy Whipping Cream - mix using hand-mixer (to fold into the batter)
The heavy cream helps moisten it and keeps the cake texture tender.. you’ll love it, give it a try!
---------------------------------------------------------

Preheat oven to 320-325 F. In a large bowl cream together butter, cream cheese, and shortening.
Add eggs, one at a time, and mix on low after each egg, add sugar then add vanilla extract. Set aside.
In a large bowl sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. (give a quick whisk)
Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, mixing gently until the batter is fluffy. (do a little at a time)
** If you choose to make the whipped cream - fold in at this time **
Prepare a bundt pan with grease and flour.
Gently spoon the batter into the prepared pan. Place bundt pan on middle rack for 1hr and 15mins to 1hr and 25mins(depending on oven internal temp) check after 1hr and 15mins.

Once done cooking and toothpick or skewer comes out clean, place on a cooling rack in the bundt pan and
let cool for 7-10mins (Don't let cake stay in the hot pan too long it will cont to cook/get browner)

** Tip - if cake seems to be browning too fast before it's finished cooking tent a small piece of foil over the cake to finish cooking. **
* weigh or use spoon-in method when measuring the Cake Flour*
** A good tool to have is an internal oven thermometer for baking/cooking accuracy **
