Cream Cheese Pound Cake
Ingredients
3/4 lb butter
3 c sugar, granulated
1/2 lb cream cheese
6 lg eggs
3 c cake flour, sifted
1/4 ts salt
1 1/2 ts almond extract
1 ts vanilla extract
Instructions
Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees F. Cream the butter, sugar and cheese together until the mixture is light and fluffy. Add salt, vanilla and almond extract. Beat well. Add eggs, one at a time, blending well after each.
Stir in flour. Don't be vigorous; mix it just enough to incorporate
the flour. Spoon into a greased tube pan. Bake in preheated oven for 1 1/2 hours. Cool for 15-20 minutes, then invert the cake onto a serving dish and remove the tube pan. If you wait too long, it will stick.

Cream Cheese Pound Cake
1 cup Butter (2 sticks) softened
1/2 cup Solid vegetable shortening
3 cup Granulated sugar
1 pkt Cream cheese - (8 oz) softened
3 cup Sifted cake flour sift then measure
(do not substitute another type of flour)
6 x Eggs lightly beaten
1 tbl Vanilla
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 9- by 13-inch pan, then line with waxed paper.
Beat together butter and shortening, gradually adding sugar. Beat well at medium speed on an electric mixer. Add softened cream cheese, beating well, until light and fluffy. Alternately add flour and eggs, beginning and ending with flour. Stir in vanilla.
Pour batter into pan, spreading batter to edges.
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Let cool in pan 10 minutes. Turn cake upside down on cookie sheet that has been lined with parchment paper. Cover top loosely with foil; place in freezer for cake to get firm. (It is easier to cut into squares when frozen.)
Cut off all four brown edges of cake (eat these or toss them). Cut cake into 1-inch squares using a very sharp knife. Do not use a bread knife; it tears the cake. Brush off any crumbs.

The original pound cake recipe, from which comes the name, was
one pound of eggs, one pound of flour, one pound of butter, and one pound of sugar.
This isn't necessarily the best, and is awfully heavy.
I can't think of any reason you couldn't just substitute cream cheese for butter pound-for-pound, whatever recipe you have for the regular cake.
