This is an easy, delicious, and plainly amazing pound cake. It will be the best you ever had. To start preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Then grease the baking pan with some butter using a pastry brush and dust it with some flour. Set it aside On a large bowl add flour, baking powder, and nutmeg and stir the mixture flour and set aside.

In the mixing bowl of a stand mixer add softened butter, and sugar, and cream them together starting at a low speed and gradually increasing the speed to medium as the mixture is getting combined. Remember to scrape down the sides of the bowl at intervals to ensure that all the mixture is well incorporated. Beat the mixture until it is smooth and fluffy. It takes between 5 to 10 minutes.

Now start dropping and mixing eggs with the cream one at a time to help the cream from curdling. Add some pure vanilla extract and mix it in as well. At this point change to the paddle attachment and the flour mixture and milk alternating at a slow speed starting with flour and ending with flour.

This process will give a smooth and light batter. Make sure the flour is well incorporated after each addition before adding the milk. When the last batch of flour has been incorporated, take out the mixing bowl and use the spatula to gently fold the batter a couple of times to incorporate the leftover flour. When the cake batter is ready pour it into your prepared pan.

The batter should be smooth and silky. Smoothen the top using the spatula. Hit it a little bit on the table to get out any air bubbles.

Leave the cake to cool completely. It should have a good texture and the crumbs should be really moist and tender.
