7-Up Pound Cake

Posted on at


INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 & ½ cups (3 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 3 cups white sugar
  • 5 eggs
  • 2 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 Tbsp lime juice
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup 7-Up Soda
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • Zest of one lime
  • Zest of one lemon


Glaze:

  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 Tbsp lime juice
  • 2 Tbsp 7-Up Soda


INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Liberally grease and flour a bundt pan. If you think you've greased it well, grease it again. Seriously. Set aside.
  2. In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the eggs in, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the lemon and lime juice, lemon and lime zests, and vanilla extract to combine. Then, alternating with 7-Up and flour, add each gradually until a thick and smooth batter comes together.
  3. Pour the batter into the prepared (and very well greased and floured) bundt pan and bake for approx. 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out mostly clean. Leave in pan for about 20 minutes before carefully inverting to a wire rack to cool completely.
  4. To make glaze, in a medium bowl, whisk together the glaze ingredients. Drizzle on top of the cake and allow glaze to set before cutting into slices.
