TIRAMISU POUND CAKE RECIPE

I replicated the classic flavors in a Tiramisu Dessert in this traditional pound cake. The result is phenomenal! It’s a tender and buttery pound cake with coffee and rum flavors. Rich multi-layers of flavors.

This has quickly become one of my favorite pound cakes! However, I have a lot to choose from! If you’ve been a reader for a while now, you already know that I have a Pound Cake Series. I have the basic, old-fashioned recipes and I’ve developed some pound cakes with unconventional flavors. 

Pound cakes are just so good! You can take a plain pound cake and serve it with fresh fruit, fruit sauce, cool whip, caramel, chocolate, or ice cream. 

In addition, pound cakes are sturdy cakes that travel and transport well. For these reasons, they make great desserts for potlucks and parties! You can serve a Pound Cake Bar with various toppings and everyone will be happy!

MOST NOTEWORTHY!

I have made a lot of pound cakes and I want you to be successful in making them too. Check out this post of tips, Bake the Perfect Pound Cake, read it before making this or any pound cake.

Additionally, you really need to calibrate your oven at least once a year. I wrote this easy to follow post, How to Calibrate your Oven, that you can use.

Finally, learn how to correctly measure flour! The recommended technique is the ‘Spoon & Level’ method.

Do not scoop the flour out of the container with your measuring cup and rake the excess off with your finger! Measuring like this you could end up with 150% more flour that is called for. Instead, sift the flour first. Next, using a spoon, scoop the flour into the measuring cup. Do not pack the flour down and do not tap the measuring cup. Doing either will cause the flour to settle in the cup. Rather, after you’ve spooned the flour into the measuring cup, use the back of a knife to level off the top of the measuring cup.

SHOP THIS POST

  1. Tube pan
  2. Tilt-head stand mixer
  3. Pure almond extract

Using a light versus a dark pan as well as sitting it on a cookie sheet (which I do) to bake will affect the baking time. For my cakes, I bake in a light pan on a round cookie sheet.

Most importantly, keep an eye on your cake and start watching it closely after 60 minutes the first time you bake it. Note exactly what you used and how long you baked it for future reference.

I hope you enjoy this easy Pound Cake as well! If you make it, don’t forget to leave a 5-star rating in the comments!
