MARBLED MILLION DOLLAR POUND CAKE RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:

• Lay butter and eggs out to get room temperature for 30-45 minutes before beginning the cake. Generously grease and flour a large 10-cup tube cake pan. In a very large mixing bowl and using a mixer on medium speed, beat the butter until creamy and pale colored, about 5 minutes. Gradually beat in the sugar until all of it has been incorporated and the texture is light and fluffy and almost white in color. Beat in one egg at a time, mixing just until each egg is blended. On low speed, add the flour to the creamed mixture alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the flour. (1 c flour, 1/4 c milk, 1 c flour, 1/4 c milk, 1 c flour, 1/4 c milk, remaining 1 c flour). Stir in both extracts* (see note at end first). Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
