Instructions:
1/ Prepare the Oven and Pan: Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan or tube pan.
2/ Cream Butter and Cream Cheese: In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and cream cheese together until smooth and creamy.
3/ Add Sugar: Gradually add the sugar, continuing to beat until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 3–5 minutes.
4/ Incorporate Eggs: Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
5/ Mix in Vanilla: Stir in the vanilla extract.
6/ Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the sifted flour and salt. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
7/ Pour and Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Smooth the top with a spatula. Bake for 75–90 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
