Yield 4 servings

1 pound fresh strawberries, sliced
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
3 drops almond extract
Pinch salt
Generous pinch coarsely ground black pepper
4 tablespoons butter
4 slices Vanilla Pound Cake, recipe follows, or store-bought
4 scoops vanilla ice cream
1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted, for garnish
1 cup all-purpose flour

3 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 1/2 cups sugar

1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, combine the strawberries, balsamic vinegar, sugar, almond extract, salt and pepper and toss to coat. Leave to macerate for 15 to 20 minutes in the refrigerator.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet or griddle over medium-low heat, swirling to coat the entire pan. Add the pound cake slices and toast until lightly browned on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the pound cake from the pan, swirl in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter; and toast the pound cake on the reverse side until lightly browned, another 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Place the toasted pound cake on plates and add a scoop of vanilla ice cream to the side of each slice. Top the slices with some of the macerated strawberries and garnish with toasted almonds. Serve immediately.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan
  • In a large bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cake flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
  • In a stand mixer or using a hand mixer, cream together the butter and cream cheese on medium speed until light and fluffy. Add the sugar and mix for 1 minute. Add the eggs, one at a time, and then the vanilla; mix for 1 minute, until well blended. With the mixer on low speed, slowly add in the dry ingredients and mix until completely blended.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 50 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes before turning the cake out onto a wire rack to cool completely. Yield: 8 servings

Categories     dessert

Time 35m

Yield 12 to 14 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Nonstick spray
1 pound (4 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 pound granulated sugar
1 pound eggs, at room temperature
1 pound all-purpose flour, plus for the pan
2 cups confectioners' sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
2 to 3 tablespoons milk

Steps:

  • For the cake: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Spray a 12-cup Bundt pan with nonstick spray and dust with flour.
  • In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and granulated sugar on medium-low until thick and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl between additions to ensure everything is homogenous. Slowly beat in the flour just until combined (the batter will be very thick).
  • Scrape the batter into the prepared Bundt pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean and the top is golden, 60 to 75 minutes. Cool in the pan on a rack for 20 minutes to allow the sides to release, then invert the cake onto the rack to cool completely.
  • For the glaze: Whisk the confectioners' sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Add 2 tablespoons milk and whisk well. If the glaze drips off a spoon fluidly but slowly, it's done; if not, add more milk, a teaspoon or so at a time, until it does.
  • Drizzle the glaze over the top of the cake, letting it run down the sides. Serve.

3/4 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
2 large eggs, room temperature
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 cup full-fat sour cream

Scrape batter into prepared pan.
  • Topping.
  • For topping, combine all ingredients to blend and sprinkle on top of cake. Bake for 55 to 65 minutes, until a tester inserted of the canter of the cake comes out clean. Allow to cool for 20 minutes before turning out to cool completely.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use brown sugar instead of granulated sugar.
  • Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the batter for a classic pound cake flavor.
  • For a crunchy topping, sprinkle the cake with chopped nuts before baking.
  • If you don't have a bundt pan, you can use a 9x13 inch baking pan. Just adjust the baking time accordingly.
  • To make sure the cake is cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the cake is done.
  • Let the cake cool completely before glazing it. This will help the glaze set properly.
