Sour Cream Pound Cake Recipe

Sour Cream Pound Cake Recipe is a simple classic and always a crowd-pleaser! It’s creamy and smooth on the inside with a crispy crust on the outside and top. I love that!

Sour Cream Pound Cake Recipe takes 90 minutes to bake since it’s so dense, but well worth the time. It is flavored with vanilla extract and has a vanilla/buttery combo flavor.

This buttery cake is great with fresh fruit, fruit sauce, cool whip, caramel, chocolate or plain. It’s very versatile; this is one reason I like it for potlucks and parties. You can serve a Pound Cake Bar with various toppings and everyone will be happy!

This Sour Cream Pound Cake Recipe is another classic Pound Cake recipe I’ve made for my Pound Cake series. You can get all the recipes here. Of the Whipping Cream Pound Cake, Cream Cheese Pound Cake and this Sour Cream Pound Cake Recipe, my favorite is still the Whipping Cream Pound Cake with this sour cream one being a very close second. It is a very, very close race! Whipping Cream Pound Cake has a slightly deeper, richer taste (slightly) that’s why it is ahead of this Sour Cream Pound Cake Recipe.

Always a crowd-pleaser, Sour Cream Pound Cake Recipe is soft, moist and buttery.
