Cream Cheese Pound Cake

This recipe, along with others that require foods to be cooked in a “cold start” oven or an oven that has not been preheated, works well on our timed delay baking feature.

*Before using this feature, make sure that the clock has been set to the correct time and the correct a.m. or p.m. settings. This does not show on the clock display, but it is very important as to what time of day you would like the food completed.

Nonstick cooking spray

1/2 pound butter (2 sticks), softened

1/2 cup vegetable shortening

8 ounces cream cheese, softened

3 cups sugar

Dash of salt

6 eggs

3 cups cake flour

2 Tablespoons vanilla extract

Spray (2) 9 x 5- inch loaf pans with nonstick cooking spray. In a large mixing bowl, combine butter, vegetable shortening, cream cheese, sugar and salt. Mix together until well creamed. Add eggs 1 at a time mixing after each addition. Add flour 1 cup at a time. Add vanilla and combine. Divide batter into loaf pans.

Place both loaves in cold oven on rack position 2.

TO SET TIMED DELAY:

•Press Convection Bake mode and the “down” arrow until you reach 325˚.

•Press “Cook Time” button. This refers to “how long will it take the pound cake to cook.” Use the “Up” arrow to enter 55 minutes.

•Finally, press the “Stop Time” button. This refers to “what time do I want this pound cake to be ready.” Use the “Up” arrow to select the time of day you wish to have dessert.

•If you wish to start the pound cake now, don’t enter a new time into the “Stop Time”, just press “Stop Time” once. You must not skip this step, or the oven will go through its normal preheat with the broiler. Notice that the 55 minutes has been added into the “Stop Time” for you.

•When the pound cake is done, 3 tones will sound and you can remove it , let cool, and enjoy your perfectly cooked pound cake.

•If you are not around to hear the tone, the oven will go into a “Hold” mode. It will display “Hold” on the screen and maintain 150˚. The oven is going into a “Hold” mode at 150˚ so that the food will not be in the temperature danger zone (40˚-140˚). Keep in mind that the pound cake will continue to cook in the hold mode due to the residual heat in the oven, but it will be safe to serve to your guests. It will remain in this mode for 2 hours.

Makes 2- 9x5 loaves.
