Instructions
Making this Strawberry Milkshake Pound Cake is a delightful journey. Follow these steps to create your masterpiece:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan.
2. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
3. Add Eggs: Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition to ensure a smooth batter.
4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
5. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the whole milk, vanilla extract, and pureed strawberries until well combined.
6. Mix Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the wet ingredients. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not over-mix.
7. Fold in Diced Strawberries: Gently fold in the diced strawberries to add texture and flavor to the batter.
8. Pour Batter: Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan, spreading it evenly.
9. Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
10. Cool: Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes. Then, carefully turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
11. Dust with Powdered Sugar: If desired, dust the cooled cake with powdered sugar for a lovely finishing touch.
With these simple steps, your Strawberry Milkshake Pound Cake will be ready for everyone to enjoy.
