1 Cup Softened Butter
5 Eggs
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1 3/4 Cup Unbleached Flour
1/2 Teaspoon Baking Powder
1/4 Teaspoon Kosher Salt

Preheat your oven to 350º F. Grease and flour a 9x5x3 inch loaf pan. In a large size bowl, beat the sugar and butter until fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time. Add the vanilla. In a separate bowl combine the flour, baking powder and kosher salt. Gradually add the flour mixture into the sugar mixture. Pour the batter into the loaf pan and bake for 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes before turning out onto a rack to cool completely. Garnish with berries and whipped cream. Serves 8
