Treat Tuesday-Buttery Pound Cake with Salty Caramel Glaze
I feel like Chicken Little…”the sky is falling!” Or maybe we are going to be sucked up into the sky as we have spent the day on storm alert. Best way to deal with disaster? Bake a cake! Not just any cake for such an occasion but the most amazing pound cake ever.
You may think I’m exaggerating or suffering from early stages of PDS, (Particularly Dangerous Situation…it’s a real weather term now, look it up), but I promise this cake is amazing. You start with a super moist pound cake that has been whipped up, with real whip cream!
As the cake cools, you mix brown sugar, more cream, and butter together in a pan to make the caramel sauce. Your home will begin to smell just like a candy factory.
Once the glaze is made you poke holes all over the pound cake so the delicious sticky caramel glaze can seep down into the middle of the cake.
(You can tell yourself that you are not going to get a spoon and starting delving into the warm caramel that pours off the cake…)
I’m going to go ahead and pre-slice several pieces, just in case the electricity goes out and I need food provisions…
