Recipe for Basic Pound Cake

Ingredients for Basic Pound Cake:
2 egg
whites
1 egg yolk
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking
powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2/3 cup milk
1 tablespoon
vanilla extract
3/4 cup butter
1/2 cup white sugar
1/4 cup
confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar

Basic Pound Cake preparation instruction:
Preheat oven to 325
degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour two 8x4 inch loaf pans. Sift
together the flour, baking powder and baking soda, set aside.
In a
medium bowl, cream together the butter, white sugar, confectioners sugar and
brown sugar until smooth. Add egg whites and egg yolks, beating after each
addition. Stir in the vanilla. Stir in the dry ingredients alternately with
the milk. Divide the batter evenly between the two pans.
Bake for 60 to
70 minutes in the preheated oven, until a toothpick inserted in the center
of the cake comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting
onto a wire rack to cool completely.
