Calling all Vanilla Bean lovers! You might be pleasantly pleased to know that this cream cheese pound cake is double-infused with vanilla bean paste, both in the cake batter and in the frosting. It's like a Double Whammy of vanilla bean goodness!!

This vanilla bean cream cheese pound cake has a moist, rich, velvety, dense texture, and the creamy, decadent vanilla bean frosting is a must!  Personally, I would not go without the frosting.  It's so good with the pound cake!! 

They compliment each other so well.   But either way, it's Vanilla LUV!  

The Madagascar Vanilla Bean Paste used makes your baked goods look extravagant and flavorful.

The paste is a really thick extract filled with vanilla bean seeds.  It can be used 1:1 in place of vanilla extract. You can also use it in place of vanilla beans in all kinds of desserts like cookies, ice cream, and frostings, just to name a few possibilities.

    Hi Tonya, you need to leave it in until it doesn't jiggle anymore and done. It will still bake, but it will not firm up because of the thickness. For future, if you feel the sides are browning to quickly, you can put tinfoil on top, like a tent and let it continue to bake to completion. Hopefully it turned out?

  3. Tonya Vukpalaj says

    Just pulled it out the oven and smells great. Only concern I have is the top was still a bit jiggly and the sides browned. I didn’t want to risk burning the sides and took it out. I’m hoping the residual heat finishes it off. Did I do something wrong?

    Hi Sylvia! It is wonderful to hear you found the pound cake awesome! Vanilla is a wonderful game changer. Thank you so much for coming to the blog and hope you visit often. 🙂 Happy New Year!

  10. Sylvia says

    I made this recipe today! Absolutely fabulous! I did use 2 loaf pans. I did not use the frosting [ I was going to ] but, this pound cake was so awesome it did not need it at all! So delicious by itself! Because I have strayed away from Chocolate I now prefer Vanilla or Caramel. I just do not care for chocolate like I use to. Too happy I came across this recipe. Thank you for sharing it.

    Hi Lauren! The temperature would be same but depending on the size of the mini loaf pans and how many you are doing would depend on the time. If you were doing 2 probably 28-32 minutes, 3 minis probably 23-28 mins. I would just keep a good watch on them. Let us know and you are very welcome!

  16. Lauren Gilham says

    Hi...this looks so yummy!!! Would like to be able to make these in mini size loaf pans. Is it possible and if so is the oven temperature still the same and how long would these bake for? Thanks so much!

  18. Tiffany Lee says

    Could you make this into like a birthday cake with 2 9" round pans? Would it hold up to being decorated you think?

    Thank you Tina! I got it on Beanilla Premium Vanilla. It's a Madagascar Vanilla Bean Paste @ https://www.beanilla.com/madagascar-vanilla-bean-paste. It doesn't take long to get in the mail. Tomorrow on the blog I have the same Vanilla Cream Cheese Pound Cake using vanilla beans instead of paste and has a vanilla bean glaze. It tastes amazing without glaze as well. Happy baking and enjoy! http://www.thebakingchocolatess.com/wp-admin/edit-comments.php#comments-form

    your Vanilla Beam Pound Cake looks AMAZING!!!
    I bought everything to bake this cake...
    but I found out I'm going to need to order the vanilla bean paste.
    Would you tell me the paste you use? I did some research, not sure
    which one to order. I would like the best one.
    Thank you,

    Tina Smith
