Cream Cheese Pound Cake

Success! The Cream Cheese Pound Cake is wonderful and addictive. The Blueberry sauce I made was the perfect topping. Here are both recipes...

Cream Cheese Pound Cake

3c. Butter
3c. Sugar
6 Eggs
8 oz Cream Cheese
3c. Flour

Cream the butter and sugar together. Add in the eggs and softened cream cheese. Mixx well. Add flour and mix until smooth. The recipe said to put in one round cake pan, but it makes so much you will probably need two. It's the perfect amount to make a layered cake. Bake at 325 for 1 1/2 hours (knife will come out of the center clean). It's a very rich cake. Simple, but heavy...

Blueberry Sauce

1 1/2 c. Blueberries (fresh or frozen)
1/4 c. Sugar
1/2 tsp. Cinnamon
1/4 tsp. Nutmeg

Bring ingredients to a boil in a saucepan. Simmer for 5 minutes. Done!
That photo of the cake is ridiculous, but the only one I have...ah well. I'll make this cake for Barry when we move to Brockville. Happy James?

When Everyone Else Is Sleeping...

When James and I have a free day you'll often find us up all night watching movies, shopping at 24 hour grocery stores, cooking and listening to music. It's 4:40 am and we're up in the kitchen listening to a copy of Morrissey's greatest hits that I won listening to The Signal on CBC. We just finished an entire plate of tacos James made while waiting for what I am making. I had a sudden urge to make a recipe I found online. Cream Cheese Pound Cake! I had a bag of Blueberries in the freezer and chose to make a spiced blueberry topping...James can have the butterscotch sauce that's left over from the Sundae birthday party (he doesn't like blueberries...what's wrong with him?).

When it's done I'll post a picture and the recipe (if it's any good...and if I survive after eating it. It's pretty much butter, sugar, eggs, cream cheese and flour....that's it...

By the way, I'm enjoying the Morrissey album more than I thought I would. The first Cd is a mix of what I'm assuming are his greatest hits (although I remember loving many of the other songs more) and there's another Cd of a live show. Haven't checked that out yet. It's a pretty good listen...
