Sour cream pound cake

Rich and dense, it's what you get from this pound cake.

Well, you can't never have too many pound cake recipe, right? As it's the most basic cake that many people love. For me the key to get delicious cake, is the quality of the ingredients, as there are nothing more than, butter, sugar, egg and flour. 
And what I love most about pound cake is the intoxicated smell of good butter, haha. I have almost 2 kg of French butter in my fridge, and I can finish in in less than 1 month. It costs a fortune, but when I think of the taste and the smell that it give to my bake good, I can't resist. 
The best way to make it shown is this kind of simple recipe, for this recipe it calls for sour cream, but I have to confess that it's easier for me to use whipping cream with vinegar than going out to buy a pot of sour cream. You can use yogurt instead of sour cream too but yogurt has less fat so your cake won't be as rich as mine, ^^.
Note: most of pound cake will be more delicious if you let it rest for 1 night (fully covered), but if you can't wait, I think you will be happy with it too.
