We wanted a rich, moist cake with a texture that could support a tangy swirl of cream cheese filling and was somewhere between the soft, dense crumb of yellow cake and the coarseness of quick bread. To add moisture, we replaced the milk with tangy and rich sour cream and upped the amount of butter. Our cake has a lush texture as well as subtle acidity—a perfect backdrop for the cheese filling.
