Sour Cream Pound Cake The recipe is in the comments.

Few desserts are as universally pleasing as sour cream pound cake. When you’re looking for easy dessert ideas, this buttery cake with a tender crumb and subtly sweet flavor—with just a hint of vanilla!—is perfect for just about any occasion.

Unlike the original old-fashioned pound cake recipe, which calls for a pound of butter, sugar, eggs and flour, this modern adaptation incorporates a few bonus ingredients that make the classic recipe even better.

For one, sour cream takes it to next-level yum. Like many sour cream desserts, it adds a delightful tang to the batter, but also extra fat and acid, which helps create an undeniably moist and rich cake. In other words, it’s a game-changer. Baking in a traditional Bundt pan gives the pound cake those beautiful ridges, taking something super simple and adding a little pizzazz.

Beyond its incredible taste and texture, what we love most about this easy pound cake recipe is that it serves as a perfect base for an array of desserts (hello, grilled pound cake with berries!) and can be tweaked to have almost endless flavor possibilities.
