This is my all time favorite recipe. That is all.

NOTE: You can cut this recipe in half and make in a loaf pan.

CAKE INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 cup butter softened to room temperature
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 cups sour cream or greek yogurt (i used 2% greek yogurt)

CINNAMON SUGAR:

  • 3/4 cup white sugar
  • 2 Tbsp ground cinnamon

INSTRUCTIONS:

Preheat the oven to 350º

In a large bowl, cream butter and 2 cups sugar until light fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. Combine flour, baking soda and salt; add alternately with sour cream, beating just enough after each addition to keep batter smooth.

Spoon a third of batter into a greased 10-in. tube or bundt pan. Combine 2 Tbsp. cinnamon and 3/4 cup white sugar to make cinnamon sugar mixture; sprinkle a third over batter in pan. Repeat layers two more times. Bake at 350° for 55-65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 15 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack to cool completely.
