Ingredients
- 1 cup of butter
- 3 cups of granulated sugar
- 6 egg(s)
- 3 cups of flour
- 1/2 pint of heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
Instructions
Beat butter and sugar for 5 minutes or more until very soft and fluffy.
Add eggs, one at a time beating well after each one.
On a low setting, mix in flour and whipping cream a little at a time, alternating between the two. It's important to mix this slowly and gently.
Add vanilla.
Starting with a cold oven, bake at 325°F (163°C) for one hour and 15 minutes. Test for doneness with a wood skewer. The density of this cake changes throughout the cake so it is important to test for doneness.
Notes
Do not preheat the oven - this cake is started in a cold oven. Because there are no leavening agents, it is important to whip thoroughly to create volume.
