Condensed Milk Pound Cake!!

Here i come again with yet another interesting recipe. The name says it all.....A Pound Cake made with Condensed Milk. Its a very easy and delicious recipe that can be prepared by using just a few ingredients. I recently saw the making of this cake in food network and watching its scrumptious results, i was motivated to make the cake. I had all the ingredients in hand and I love condensed milk, so today was the day. It turned out so so so good. Sharing the recipe with you.

You will need:

---11/3 cups all purpose flour

---1 cup powdered sugar

---3/4 tsp baking powder

---1/2 tsp salt

---3 large eggs

---1 cup sweetened condensed milk

---1 cup whipped unsalted butter

---2 tsps pure vanilla extract

---Greased round or square pan

Directions:

---Preheat the oven to 325° F.

---Generously butter the cake pan and set aside.

---Sift(filter) together the flour and baking powder and set aside.

---Take a big mixing bowl and put the sugar in it.

---Add the butter and salt and mix until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes, scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl occasionally.

--- Add the condensed milk and pulse until well incorporated, about 15 times, scraping down the sides of the bowl once. (I used a big spoon to beat the butter, sugar and condensed milk but you can use a beater).

---Add the sifted dry ingredients (flour and baking powder) and pulse until no traces of flour remain, about 10 times.

---Add the eggs and pulse just until combined, about 5 times.

---Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl, add the vanilla extract and finish mixing by hand to fully incorporate the eggs.

---Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan ( fully greased).

---Bake until the top is dark golden brown and a tester (usually a toothpick) inserted in the center comes out clean.

[I baked my pound cake for 45 minutes!]

---Cool completely in the cake pan on a rack, then unmold.

---You can transfer the cake on to a plate or a cakemate as per your choice. Also you can cut the cake into your desired shapes( i prefer triangular) and preserve them in air tight container for 1 week to 10days.

PS: Use store bought Carnation sweetened condensed milk and use the whipped butter at room temperaure . In that way it will be very easy when you mix things.

Hope you liked this recipe......so its your turn to try it out!!
