Cecelia's Pound Cake

1 (8 oz.) package cream cheese
3 sticks butter
3 cups sugar
6 eggs
3 cups flour
1 tsp. salt
1 Tbsp. vanilla

Cream butter and cream cheese. Add sugar and mix. Add eggs, one at a time. Add flour and vanilla and mix well. Bake at 325 degrees 1 hour and 15 minutes.

My friend Cecelia Sands makes one of these cakes every week for her husband, Ira, who has a slice each evening after dinner. She is kind enough to make it for us sometimes when we play cards at her house.
