Ingredients

5 oz cream cheese, softened

1/4 cup butter, softened

1/4 cup butter-flavored vegetable shortening

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

1 cup sugar

3 eggs, at room temperature

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/4 cup confectioner's sugar, or as needed

Directions

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

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

In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually beat the flour mixture into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.

Beat in 1 egg, followed by 1/2 cup sugar. Repeat with the second and third eggs, alternating with the remaining sugar. Beat in vanilla extract. Pour batter into the prepared pan.

Bake for 38 to 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes.

Remove cake from pan and cool completely. Once the cake is fully cooled, dust with a thick layer of powdered sugar.
