Condensed Milk Pound Cake is a buttery, rich, and dense pound cake sweetened with sweetened condensed milk. Topped with whipped cream and fresh berries, it makes a delightful southern dessert.
How To Serve
With just the right amount of sweetness, Condensed Milk Pound Cake also makes an indulgent breakfast with a cup of coffee. It would be perfect for cubing and forming into a trifle for the 4th of July with lots of strawberries and blueberries and whipped cream.
Ingredients
Only your basic pound cake ingredients are needed for this cake plus a can of sweetened condensed milk. For flavoring there’s vanilla extract and just a little almond extract.
Unfortunately the recipe does not use the entire can of sweetened condensed milk, and yes, it is a little bit aggravating to have some left in the can.
But just think of all the ways you can use those leftovers.
My favorite way is to grab a spoon and go to town. Sweetened condensed milk does taste like the nectar of the Gods so why not just eat it plain?
Or you can add it to your coffee, smoothie, or oatmeal. Drizzle it on pancakes or waffles. Or cut some fresh peaches in half, drizzle them with sweetened condensed milk and roast them until the sugar starts to caramelize.
Measure The Flour Correctly
To get the proper texture it is so important to measure the flour correctly. Too much flour will result in a dry cake. To measure correctly, first fluff the flour up with a spoon in the bag or container. Next gently scoop it with a spoon into a dry measuring cup. Overfill slightly and then run the back of a knife across the top to get rid of the excess.
Storage
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 5 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
