Cream Cheese Pound Cake

    I have made my first pound cake! And it was awesome! I was so excited to make this because I haven't eaten pound cake in forever and....I got to use my brand new Kitchen Aid!!!!! 

    My husband has never been a big fan of pound cake, until now! This Cream Cheese Pound Cake is very rich and moist and easy to make.

     I originally found this recipe from a blog called Elizabeth's Edible Experience which was posted on Pinterest. I found out that she originally got it from Southern Living so that is the recipe I used. I have never had a bad experience with Southern Living recipes! Hope you enjoy making this, because I promise you will LOVE eating it!
