Mile High Pound Cake using Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk:

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan.

Cream the butter and sugar together in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.

Beat in the sweetened condensed milk until well combined.

Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.

Stir in the vanilla extract and salt.

In a separate bowl, sift together the flour and baking powder.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth out the top.

Bake for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Let the cake cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before removing.

Tips:

For best results, use room temperature ingredients.
Don’t overmix the batter. Once the dry ingredients are incorporated, stop mixing.
The cake is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cake cool completely before frosting it, as this will help prevent the frosting from melting.

Frosting Options:

Classic Buttercream Frosting: This is a simple and delicious frosting that goes well with pound cake.
Cream Cheese Frosting: This tangy frosting is a great complement to the sweetness of the cake.
Chocolate Ganache: For a rich and decadent treat, top the cake with chocolate ganache.

Enjoy
