Instructions
- Prepare the Oven and Pan: Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan.
- Cream the Butter and Cheese: In a large bowl, cream together the butter, cream cheese, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add Eggs and Flour: Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually mix in the flour until just combined. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Bake the Cake: Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan. Bake for 70-80 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool the Cake: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Make the Caramel Sauce: In a saucepan, combine brown sugar, heavy cream, butter, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
