This cake is very popular in the East Coast. Natale's Bakery in New Jersey is famous for this cake. I made a small cake but this recipe can be easily doubled and baked in a 12 cup tube or Bundt pan. The powdered sugar is a must on this cake.

Ingredients

  • 5 ounces cream cheese
  • 0.25 cups butter
  • 0.25 cups butter-flavored vegetable shortening
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoons salt
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 0.25 cups powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a tube or Bundt pan and set aside.

  2. 2

    Beat butter, cream cheese, and shortening together with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. Beat flour mixture into cream cheese mixture and mix until well combined.

  4. 4

    Beat in 1 egg. Add 1/2 cup sugar; mix until combined. Repeat with second egg and remaining sugar; beat in last egg. Beat in vanilla extract. Pour batter into the prepared pan.

  5. 5

    Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 38 to 45 minutes.

  6. 6

    Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Remove cake from pan and cool completely. When cake is completely cool, sift powdered sugar in a thick layer over the whole cake.
