Cream Cheese Pound Cake

It is always a good day for a slice of cake. Birthday, not required. This variation of the classic pound cake is so incredibly good, anyone who tries it will surely ask for seconds and possibly a slice to take home. This cake is perfect for a crowd. I can generally get a good 16+ slices out of one cake and it stays moist for days. It’s great with a glaze and great without. Sometimes I will even sprinkle a little powdered sugar for decoration, but really all you need is a fork. Enjoy!
