How to Make Delicious Cheesecake Loaf Cake

Ingredients:

For the Cake:

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt

  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup milk

For the Cheesecake Layer:

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Directions:

  2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.

  6. Pour half of the cake batter into the prepared loaf pan. Spread the cheesecake mixture evenly on top. Add the remaining cake batter on top of the cheesecake layer.
  7. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Slice and enjoy! This cake is best served at room temperature or chilled.
