Pound Cake with Strawberry Coulis

April 19, 2010 By Naomi Robinson | Bakers Royale 9 Comments

Perfect Pound Cake with Strawberry Coulis ~ A perfect pound cake made untraditionally with cream cheese. Yes, really, cream cheese and it’s so good! Add the strawberry coulis and you will be rhythmically tapping the plate as you scoop your next fork full.

Pound Cake with Strawberry Coulis

Seldom do I get a request from my family for any dessert. That being said, a request was placed for some pound cake and prefaced with, “Nothing fancy, just plain buttery pound cake”. Keeping things plain should be simple enough, right? But somehow that’s like asking a sprinter to walk—I just couldn’t help myself.

Strawberry season has begun and fresh from the Farmer’s Market was a basket of beautiful strawberries intended for some Strawberry Shortcake testing. But the request was opportune, as I remembered just recently seeing abunsinmyoven’s recipe for Cream Cheese Pound Cake with Strawberry Coulis that I wanted to try.

Intrigued by the cream cheese portion of the pound cake, I decided to tie everything together: Pound cake for the request while testing a new recipe and a touch of dress-up with the coulis.

The only thing I added to the recipe was the lemon cream cheese glaze. I added the glaze because I like the balance lemon gives to the buttery taste of pound cake- just a personal preference. Of course, you can bypass the glaze, the pound cake taste great without it.

A few notes:
1. Go to http://bit.ly/cdrixG for the recipe.
2. This can be made four days in advance (without the finishing glaze) and keep it wrapped tightly with plastic.

    I always add a bit of almond extract to cream cheese pound cake…delicious with strawberry topping, although your lemon version is definitely on my to-try list.

Shrimp and Corn Chowder ~ When things go crazy we Shrimp and Corn Chowder ~ When things go crazy we go simple! Who else feels this? #ad Back to school has been off to a rocky start with mixed up carpool rides to missed days from being sick. Thankfully soups like this come together quickly and easily. All you need are just a handful of fresh ingredients and some pantry staples like @enjoyrealcoco Coconut Milk and @kettleandfire Bone Broth. Both of which are @TetraPakUSA  packaged. This means I can stock my pantry and not worry about rotating the food month-to-month. The aseptic packaging solution helps unopened food have a shelf life of six months or more without the need for refrigeration or preservatives. I’m telling you it’s the little things, like food packaging—something you don’t even think about most days, that ends up being the thing that can have the biggest impact sometimes! #ProtectsWhatsGood

Who’s ready to roll into fall with cozy, autumna Who’s ready to roll into fall with cozy, autumnal picnics? To kickstart the season, the kids and I are headed to the park to enjoy an Apple Spiced Cake and warm sips of Apple Cider sweetened with our favorite pantry staple, @truvia. #ad

Truvia Sweet Complete Sweeteners are zero-calorie and made with plant-based stevia sweetness. Whether you are using the All-Purpose, Brown, or Confectioners Sweetener, they measure cup-for-cup like sugar in your favorite seasonal baked goods! 

Apple Spiced Cake 
Serves 12 

3 cups (14 oz.) self-rising flour
1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon fresh grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves 
3 eggs
1 cup (6.25 oz.) Truvia Sweet Complete Granulated All-Purpose Sweetener 
1 cup (5.75 oz.) Truvia Sweet Complete Brown Sweetener 
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup vegetable oil 
1 1/2 cups (5.5 oz.) peeled and shredded granny smith apple, about 2 large

Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a 10-12 cup bundt pan with non-stick spray. Set aside. 

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and cloves. Set aside.

In a second large bowl, add the eggs, and beat until combined. Add both the Truvia Sweet Complete Granulated All-Purpose and Brown Sweeteners, whisk until fully incorporated. Pour in buttermilk, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil, whisk until combined. 

Fold dry ingredients into the wet until smooth. Add the grated apples and fold until just combined. 

Pour batter in prepared pan and bake for 45 minutes or until a cake tester comes out free of wet batter. Transfer cake to a wire rack and let cool in the bundt pan for 20 minutes. Unmold cake and let cool completely on a wire rack. Before serving, dust with Truvia Sweet Complete Confectioners Sweetener. Enjoy outside with a seasonal beverage!
