Ingredients
For the Pound Cake:
-
1 ½ cups (3 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
-
8 oz cream cheese, softened
-
2 cups granulated sugar
-
6 large eggs
-
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
-
3 cups all-purpose flour
-
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
-
½ teaspoon salt
For the Cinnamon Swirl:
-
¾ cup brown sugar
-
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
For the Glaze & Topping:
-
½ cup caramel sauce
-
½ cup cream cheese glaze (cream cheese + powdered sugar + milk)
-
½ cup chopped or whole pecans
How to Make It
1. Prepare the Oven and Pan
Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a Bundt cake pan.
2. Make the Pound Cake Batter
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, cream cheese, and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, mix flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually blend the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until fully incorporated.
3. Create the Cinnamon Swirl
In a small bowl, combine brown sugar and cinnamon. Pour half the batter into the pan, sprinkle the cinnamon mixture evenly, then top with the remaining batter.
4. Bake
Bake for 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
5. Add the Glaze and Toppings
Drizzle with caramel sauce and cream cheese glaze, then scatter the pecans generously on top. Chill slightly for the glaze to set, or serve warm for extra gooeyness!
Pro Tips
-
For added flavor, toast the pecans before sprinkling them.
