Incredible Pound Cake

I made this to go along with fresh strawberries and cream.  I haven't made a pound cake before, but this came out WONDERFUL!  It's another great find from Recipezaar.

Incredible Pound Cake
8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1 1/2 cup butter, softened
3 cups sugar
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract (or almond, if desired)
6 eggs
3 cups flour

Blend together cream cheese and butter for 2 minutes. 
Gradually add the sugar and beat for 5 full minutes.
Add the vanilla and then the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each.
Gradually add the flour, mixing on low.  Mix until blended, but do not overbeat.

Grease and flour a 10" tube pan. 
Bake at 325 for 90 minutes.  Cool about ten minutes, then remove to a cooling rack.

I don't have one so I used 2 loaf pans.  I should have used three, fwiw.  I used granulated sugar instead of flour and it made a very good crust.

*UPDATE- I purchased a 10" bundt pan and made this again today.  All the batter fit well in the pan and the cake came out great.  I used powdered sugar this time rather than granulated.  Everyone preferred the caramelized granulated crust.

Can you believe that I have a 10" tube cake pan? I found it at a garage sale years ago. I'm so going to have to try your pound cake recipe!
