Whipping Cream Pound Cake

Step 1
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan.

Step 2
In a large bowl, cream butter for 2 minutes. Add sugar and continue beating for 5 minutes, scraping down bowl occasionally. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color. Add eggs one at a time, beating well with each addition.

Step 3
Add flour alternately with whipping cream, beginning and ending with flour. Stir in vanilla and almond extract.

Step 4
Spread batter into prepared pan. Bake in preheated oven until a tester inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, about 70 minutes. Allow to cool in pan for 15 minutes.

Step 5
Turn cake out onto a cotton dish towel and place on cooling rack covered with cotton towel. When cake is cool, top with confectioners' sugar and serve with fruit or by itself.
