Pound Cake

1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch tube or bundt pan.
2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
3. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the sour cream. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
6. Stir in the vanilla extract.
7. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly.
8. Bake for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
