Instructions

Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C) and prepare a 10-inch bundt pan by greasing and flouring it.
Prepare the batter: In a large bowl, beat the butter and cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add sugar, beating until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla. Combine flour and salt, add to the mixture, and mix until just combined.
Bake the cake: Pour the batter into the pan and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes to 1 hour and 30 minutes, until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For a citrus twist, add 1 tablespoon of lemon or orange zest to the batter.
This cake pairs well with fresh berries or a light glaze.
