Cold Oven Pound Cake

I've been making this mutual frigidity oven pound cake for over 25 years in addition to it has never failed me. It is a wonderful quondam recipe that y'all kickoff baking inwards a COLD oven. An hr in addition to v minutes later, y'all cause got perfection inwards taste, texture, sweetness, wet in addition to shape.


1 pound powdered carbohydrate (4 cups, come across note)
1/2 pound of butter (room temperature)
4 large eggs
3 cups all role flour (see note)
1 loving cup warm water
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon lemon extract
1 teaspoon kokosnoot extract

This recipe calls for 1 pound of powdered sugar, but that was an inconvenient measuring for me, thence I got out my novel handy-dandy kitchen scale in addition to (fluffed, scooped, leveled) it was precisely 4 cups.
DO NOT PREHEAT OVEN. Cream the room temperature butter in addition to the powdered carbohydrate together with electrical mixer until it is really fluffy (this volition accept 2-3 minutes). Beat inwards egg's i at a time, scraping the sides of the bowl betwixt eggs (to brand certain it gets mixed well).

In split bowl, mensurate out 3 cups of flour in addition to stir inwards the baking powder. NOTE: to measure each loving cup of flour, sift it into a cup in addition to marker off the operate past times alongside a conduct edge. If y'all merely dip your measuring loving cup into the flour, y'all volition live getting also much flour.

Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, alternately, alongside the warm water. I unremarkably produce this inwards thirds. Stir inwards extracts. The lastly flavour of the cake has a really mild lemon flavor, y'all won't actually sense of savor the kokosnoot extract, but it actually adds something to the overall flavour of the cake.
Pour cake batter into a good greased in addition to floured 10" bundt pan (I utilization a cooking spray alongside flour inwards it).  Shake the pan merely a footling to eliminate whatever small-scale air pockets inwards the batter.

Put pan into COLD oven. Turn the oven to 350°F in addition to laid upwards the timer for 1 hr in addition to 5 minutes. Remove cake from oven in addition to allow it sit down inwards the pan (on a rack) for x minutes, in addition to thence plough it out.

Wrap the HOT cake tightly alongside plastic roll (I produce this to all of my cakes) in addition to allow it cool to room temperature earlier frosting.

This is the perfect cake for strawberry shortcake, petit fours, or merely snacking!!
