Categories     dessert

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

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
1 cup cake flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
7 ounces (1 3/4 sticks) butter, softened, plus 1 tablespoon for greasing the loaf pan
3 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 1/2 cups sugar
5 eggs
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

STRAWBERRIES AND WINE



Strawberries and Wine image

Wonderful dessert that is light and refreshing. The strawberries marinate in the wine for hours producing a strawberry flavor wine at the bottom of the bowl that everyone will be fighting for. Adjust the amount of sugar depending on the sweetness of the berries you have. Great way to dress up not-too-sweet strawberries! Champagne may be substituted for the wine.

STRAWBERRIES IN RED WINE



Strawberries in Red Wine image

This is a very simple, but quite wonderful dessert, best made with sweet, ripe, fragrant berries, which complements the tannins of red wine. Let the strawberries macerate in wine for up to 1 hour, but no more or they'll be unpleasantly soggy. (It's fine to prepare and sugar them in advance.)

WINE-ROASTED STRAWBERRIES



Wine-Roasted Strawberries image

Roasted in white wine with orange and lemon juices, the flavor of the strawberries intensifies. This is a good technique to perk up less than stellar berries. Use the strawberries as a topping for a simple dessert like Citrus Cornmeal Cake.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Time 1h35m

Yield Makes 2 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 small orange
1 small lemon
1/4 cup dry white or rose wine
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
2 quarts strawberries, hulled and halved (6 cups)
2 star-anise pods

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Peel three 2-inch-long strips of zest each from orange and lemon, then juice both (you should have 1/4 cup juice total). Stir wine and maple syrup into juice. Place strawberries in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Add juice mixture, zest strips, and star anise; stir to combine. Roast, stirring once, until sauce is slightly syrupy and strawberries turn bright red, 1 hour, 20 minutes to 1 hour, 30 minutes. Let cool completely. (Strawberries can be refrigerated in an airtight container up to 3 days.)

Tips:

  • Use a good quality red wine for the cake batter. A dry red wine with a medium body, such as a Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot, will work well.
  • Macerate the strawberries in sugar and Grand Marnier for at least 30 minutes before using. This will help to draw out their flavor and make them even more delicious.
  • Be careful not to overmix the cake batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that the cake is cooked through.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

This wine cake with macerated strawberries is a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The cake is moist and flavorful, with a rich red wine flavor. The macerated strawberries add a touch of sweetness and tartness, and the Grand Marnier glaze adds a touch of sophistication. This cake is sure to impress your guests, and it is easy to make.
