Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt pan. (5 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

In a medium bowl, toss pecans and butterscotch chips with 2 tablespoons of the flour until evenly coated. This helps prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the cake during baking. (5 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat together sugar, cream cheese, butter, shortening, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy. This may take 3-5 minutes, but ensure the mixture is well-creamed for the best texture. (5 minutes)

04

Step
8 mins

Gradually add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Alternate adding 1/2 cup of the remaining flour with each egg to ensure a smooth batter. Mix until just combined; do not overmix. (8 minutes)

05

Step
3 mins

Gently fold in the flour-coated butterscotch chips and pecans until evenly distributed throughout the batter. (3 minutes)

06

Step
2 mins

Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan, spreading evenly. (2 minutes)

07

Step
1 hrs 30 mins

Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top of the cake starts to brown too quickly, tent it loosely with aluminum foil. (90 minutes)

08

Step
20 mins

Let the cake cool in the pan for 20 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely. (20 minutes)

09

Step

Once cooled, slice and serve. Enjoy the rich flavors and tender crumb of this exquisite Butterscotch Pound Cake.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of bourbon or rum to the batter.
Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for optimal emulsification and a smoother batter.
To prevent sticking, grease the Bundt pan thoroughly, paying attention to all the nooks and crannies. Dusting with flour after greasing ensures easy release.
Store leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.

    Mine sunk in the middle, what did I do wrong? - Amanda P. (Response: Make sure your oven temperature is accurate and avoid opening the oven door frequently during baking. Overmixing the batter can also cause sinking.)
