We enjoyed some delicious #MillstoneCoffee along with this Condensed Milk Pound Cake as part of a sponsored post for Socialstars by Crowdtap.
My husband Jack and I will both admit it – we are major coffee addicts! Neither of us can go without our morning cup of Joe!
So this past weekend…our coffee maker broke! Both of us were DYING until we could get to the nearest coffee shop – which was en route to the closest store so we could buy a new coffee maker as soon as possible!
There’s no doubt about it, both of us look forward to a great cup of coffee every morning, and one of our favorites is Millstone Coffee! All Millstone brand coffees are slow-roasted to perfection from 100% Premium Arabica Beans – the best available – and it totally shows in Millstone Coffee’s fantastic flavor and aroma!
And if you are coffee lovers like us, Millstone has two new gourmet flavors you’ve got to try: their House Blend – a well-balanced blend with a flavorful, smooth finish, and their Mayan Black Onyx – a dark, full-bodied blend with a rich finish! (You can also see a complete list of other Millstone Coffee flavors right here.)
I’m partial to the smooth flavors of the House Blend while Jack loves the bold Mayan Black Onyx! And any of Millstone’s gourmet coffees will go perfectly with this Sweetened Condensed Milk Pound Cake recipe we’re sharing with you today!
This sweetened condensed milk pound cake is moist, dense and lightly sweet. It’s perfect served for breakfast (along with some delicious Millstone Coffee of course!) – and it’s also wonderful served for dessert with fruit or any other kind of sweet topping. Enjoy!

Condensed Milk Pound Cake
- Prep Time: 15 mins
- Cook Time: 1 hour
- Total Time: 1 hour 15 minutes
- Yield: 1 loaf 1x
Ingredients
- 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 3/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325 degrees.
- Spray an 8½ x 4½ inch loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
- In a bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder and salt and set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar on high speed until light and fluffy – about 2 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing after each egg until well blended. Add sweetened condensed milk and vanilla to the butter mixture and mix until combined.
- With the mixer on low, slowly add the dry mixture to the wet mixture (increasing the speed of the mixer as needed and scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed) until well combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 60-65 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
- Cool for 10 minutes, then turn the pound cake out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
I only have a 9 x 5 inch loaf pan. I don’t mind a shallower loaf ( unless there are some other drawbacks) but I am wondering if I should adjust the temperature and the time to bake the cake?
Hi – I would keep the baking temp the same and adjust the baking time (should take less time to bake). Hope that helps!
I just tried this recipe and it’s amazing.it is too sweet according to my taste but my family liked it.i baked it for 45 min and it turned out great.thanx for the recipe.😊
Thanks for your feedback!
I made this cake today. DELICIOUS!! Super moist and soft. To top it off the little left over condensed milk, I drizzled over the cake. This cake will be a staple in my books 🙂
Thanks Jessica! So glad you enjoyed the recipe!
Been looking for a best pound cake recipe for quite some time. I must give it a try. Indeed looks perfect.
Hope you enjoy the recipe Kat!
Done! Fully satisfied with the result. I will definitely do this again. Thanks for sharing this great recipe. God bless!
So glad you enjoyed the recipe Kat!
simple moist and soft texture. very lovely. i enjoyed this cake 🙂
Thanks Ashleigh – So glad you enjoyed the recipe!
I made this cake and I am totally rubbish at making cakes. This cake came out absolutely gorgeous. The only problem was that it was abit too sweet. Can I use less sugar, or will that affect the texture?
Hi Kymora – We’ve only made this recipe as written. But I think you could try reducing the sugar a bit – please let us know how it comes out!
Hi Sanchitha – So glad you enjoyed the recipe. My cake was very moist but I wouldn’t really describe it as very buttery. I has been a while since we made the recipe but I believed we used a glass pyrex loaf pan to bake it – glass loaf pans sometimes bake faster than metal (not sure if yours was glass or metal) and I do remember the outside browning while the inside baked. I haven’t used this recipe for strawberry or lemon pound cakes so you’ll have to play around a bit yourself. I would imagine adding some diced strawberries to the batter as written should work fine (the extra moisture might require additional cooking time) and for lemon – maybe adding some lemon zest and swapping out some of the vanilla extract for lemon extract or lemon juice? Please let us know how it comes out! I hope that helps! Martha
I just wanted to say this was so moist and delicious. Certainly one of the best pound cakes I’ve ever had.
I made this with my four year old niece and she had such a fun time. She did almost all of it herself and she was so proud when it came out of the oven. Thank you so much.
Awww…so glad you (and your niece) enjoyed the recipe! Thanks for taking the time to write to us!
