Preparation
Step 1
For The Cake
Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
In the bowl of a mixer, combine butter, shortening (or oil) and sugar and beat on medium high until light and fluffy which takes about 5 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Add half of sour cream to mixer and combine. Next add baking powder and salt to cake flour and pour half of flour mixture into cake batter and beat until incorporated. Again, repeat steps and add the remaining sour cream to batter followed by the rest of the cake flour and baking powder mixture. Lastly, add vanilla extract and mix until well combined but don't over mix.
For the Swirl
In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter, vanilla extract, brown sugar, ground cinnamon and flour until well mixed.
Spray one bundt pan with baking spray. Pour 1/4 of cake batter into bundt pan. Next drizzle some of the swirl mixture over batter and use a knife to create a swirl pattern. Repeat these steps, with first the cake batter then the swirl until all the cake batter is transferred to the bundt pan.
Bake for 1 hour and 10-20 minutes. Remove from oven and cool in bundt pan for 10 minutes then remove from pan and allow to cool.
For the Glaze
In a mixer bowl, beat together cream cheese, confectioner's sugar, milk and vanilla extract until smooth and pourable. Pour the glaze over the pound cake and serve.
