Vanilla Butternut Pound Cake

Vanilla Butternut Pound Cake


Quick, pin this recipe! Vanilla Butternut Pound Cake is an amazing coffee cake my family's been making for years and I had a craving for it the other day. The best thing about this cake is how well it keeps. You can have it out on the counter (covered, of course) for days, and it just tastes better and better. You can also freeze it. It's buttery, slightly nutty, and really, really moist. You'll love this pound cake recipe!

Perfect pound cake recipe


Vanilla Butternut Pound Cake

1 c. butter, softened
1/2 c. vegetable shortening
3 c. sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
5 eggs
3 c. flour
2/3 c. evaporated milk
2 T. vanilla butternut flavoring
3/4 c. chopped maraschino cherries
3/4 c. chopped walnuts

Cream butter and shortening with sugar and salt until smooth. Crack eggs into a small bowl and add them into the creamed mixture one at a time. Pour evaporated milk into a liquid measuring cup and add enough water to make one cup. Alternately add flour and evaporated milk mixture to the batter, starting and ending with the flour. Fold in the vanilla butternut flavoring by hand.

Pour about half of the batter into a well-greased 10” bundt or tube pan. Add ½ c. each of the chopped cherries and walnuts, then pour the remaining batter on top. Top with remaining cherries and nuts.

Start in a cold oven set to 325 degrees. Bake for about 1 hour and 45 minutes. Don’t open the oven door during the baking process. Remove from the pan immediately.

Peaches and Cream Scones

Good morning, sunshines! Sadly, peach season is coming to a rapid close, but before it's gone for another year, you've gotta try these scones! They taste like peach cobbler that you can hold in your hand! If you recall, I rounded up some great peach recipes for you a few weeks back, and this was one I just had to try myself. The recipe comes from A Latte Food . The only thing I changed was the amount of vanilla that went in the glaze. I decreased it from 1 T. to 1 tsp. Hop on over to A Latte Food for the full recipe, then swipe up the last of summer's peaches before they're gone!

Blue and Red Valentine Decorations

Hey there! Happy Monday! Have you undecorated for Christmas yet? I have to do a decoration detox for a bit after the holidays. I keep the decor to a minimum, but around now, I start to think about Valentine's Day decorations. I think it's hard to work with red and pink since our house is mostly blue, gray and green. But these blue and red Valentine craft ideas would look great in our house, and maybe yours, too! via via via via via via via via via You May Also Like: Key to Our Hearts Valentine Art DIY Heart Crayons Grilled Chocolate Marshmallow Sandwiches Vintage Valentine Crafts
