CREAM CHEESE POUND CAKE

     POUND-CAKE-2 - A pound cake made with cream cheese

     I got this recipe from Annette Hall at Computer System
     Resources, in Georgia. (annette@gacsr.UUCP). She posted it
     to net.cooks, claiming that it's the best pound cake you'll
     ever taste. She's right!

INGREDIENTS (One large cake)
     3/4 lb    butter
     3 cups    granulated sugar
     1/2 lb    cream cheese
     6         eggs (large)
     3 cups    cake flour sifted
     1/4 tsp   salt
     1 1/2 tsp almond extract
     1 tsp     vanilla extract

PROCEDURE
          (1)  Pre-heat oven to 325 deg. F.

          (2)  Cream the butter, sugar, and cheese together until
               the mixture is light and fluffy.

          (3)  Add salt, vanilla, and almond extract. Beat well.

          (4)  Add eggs, one at a time, blending well after each.

          (5)  Stir in flour. Don't be vigorous; mix it just
               enough to incorporate the flour.

          (6)  Spoon into a greased tube pan.  Bake in preheated
               oven for 1 1/2 hours.

          (7)  Cool for 15-20 minutes, then invert the cake onto
               a serving dish and remove the tube pan.  If you
               wait too long, it will stick.
