To make this delicious dessert, you will need the following ingredients:
For the Pound Cake:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Fruit Drizzle:
- 1 cup fresh fruit (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, or a combination)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the buttermilk and vanilla extract. Mix until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely before adding the fruit drizzle.
To make the fruit drizzle, combine the fresh fruit, sugar, and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. In a separate bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and a tablespoon of water until smooth. Add the cornstarch mixture to the fruit mixture and stir until thickened.
Pour the fruit drizzle over the cooled pound cake and serve. This dish is perfect for any occasion and is sure to impress your guests with its delicious taste and beautiful appearance.
