Report
Tender pound cake is sweet enough to enjoy the cake as it is or top with homemade strawberry sauce and whipped cream for a special dessert.

Ingredients
- 2 sticks 1/2 pound unsalted butter, room temperature
- 2 cups fine granulated sugar
- 4 extra-large eggs room temperature
- 3 cups all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup buttermilk room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Strawberry Sauce
- 1 pound strawberries diced
- 1/3 cup granulated sweetener regular or sugar free
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees
- Grease and flour pans (I used 9X4 loaf, and 7 inch bundt pan)
- Cream the butter and sugar in a medium sized bowl until light and fluffy (approximately 5-8 minutes).
- Beat in the eggs one at a time.
- In a separate bowl sift the flour, baking powder and salt together.
- Combine vanilla and buttermilk in a measuring cup.
- Begin to add the flour and buttermilk to the batter, alternating between the two starting and ending with the flour.
- Bake for 45-60 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Cool for about 10 minutes before removing them from pans.
Strawberry Sauce
- Set 1/3 of the diced strawberries to the side. These will be added at the end.
- Add the remaining berries and sweetener to a medium high heated saucepan, stirring occasionally until the juices are released, sweetener melts, and the mixture begins to thicken (5-8 minutes).
- Remove from heat, add the vanilla, and stir until blended. Stir in the remaining diced strawberries.
- Optional step - Take half of the topping and puree it in a food processor or blender. Return it to the mixture and cool at room temperature.
Notes
- The batter is enough to make two standard loafs (8 1/4 x 4 1/2) or a large bundt cake. I used a small bundt pan (7 inch) and loaf pan (9 x 4).
