Almond Cream Cheese Pound Cake

This is a very simple cake that everyone will love except those who doesn’t like almonds 😉 just like my kids -they said it smells like medicine- but the grown ups love this cake.  This cake is dense and big, so it’s perfect for when you have company but you can also bake this in two medium loaf pans and give the other one as gift or freeze it (without the glaze).

It looks beautiful with a glaze but this cake tastes good even without it. I didn’t have enough cream cheese when I made this so I did not add any to the glaze..that explains why my glaze is runny, I had to take pictures really quick because it’s about to ooze out of the cake plate. :DD

Tip: Combine a tablespoon each of Crisco, veg oil and flour mixed it well and use this to grease the bottom of your Bundt pan..you’ll have beautiful cake every time; just make absolutely sure that you didn’t miss any spot or it will ruin your cake’s appearance.  Oh,  don’t worry though there’s always  glazes and icings  to cover your mishap 😉

Beautiful cake that tastes better a day or two after making it. It needs only a simple glaze or a dusting of sugar and it goes perfectly with coffee or tea.
