If you’re on the hunt for a sweet treat that doesn’t require much fuss, then I have just the recipe for you. This French Butter Cake is quick, easy, and downright delicious. I’d describe it as a marriage of coffee cake and pound cake, something we never knew we needed but are so happy to have in our life. It’s buttery (of course), just the right amount of sweet, and has a tender crumb that practically melts in your mouth. Best of all, it’s made with ingredients you likely have on hand, making it an ideal last-minute treat when the sweet tooth strikes.



As you may have guessed, it’s the butter that really sets this cake apart! A whole cup of it. You’ll want to fully melt the butter then cream it with a cup of granulated sugar. Mix for at least a minute to introduce plenty of air into the batter for a light and tender final result. Next up, you’ll add the eggs one at a time, then a generous couple teaspoons of vanilla extract Slowly, mix in those dry ingredients until just combined (overmixing can make for a tough texture!), then fold in the sour cream for a little touch of tang.
