Equipment

  • 9×5-inch loaf pan
  • Hand Mixer
  • mixing bowl
  • small bowl

Ingredients
  

Pound Cake

  • ½ cup butter softened
  • cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • cups all-purpose flour
  • teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ cup milk
  • cups diced fresh strawberries

Strawberry Glaze

  • 1 piece strawberry diced
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions
 

Pound Cake

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x5 inch loaf pan. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to cream together the butter and sugar until pale and fluffy.
  • Beat in the eggs, sour cream, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  • Add in the flour and baking powder, mixing on low speed just until the batter starts to come together. Pour in the milk and mix until fully incorporated.
  • Gently fold in the diced strawberries with a spatula.
  • Transfer the batter to your prepared loaf pan, smoothing out the top.
  • Bake for 50–55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the loaf cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes before removing.

Glaze

  • In a small bowl, mash the chopped strawberry with a fork. Add the powdered sugar, cream, and lemon juice. Whisk until smooth. Pour the glaze over the cooled loaf. Slice and enjoy!
