Detailed Directions and Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and grease a bundt pan.
Step 2: Creaming Butter and Sugar
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Step 3: Adding Eggs
Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition to ensure they are fully incorporated.
Step 4: Incorporating the 7-Up
Stir in the 7-Up soda, mixing to combine with the other ingredients.
Step 5: Adding Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined.
Step 6: Pouring into the Bundt Pan
Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
Step 7: Baking the Cake
Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 8: Cooling the Cake
Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
