Coffee Cake Pound Cake
September 21, 2017 By 24 Comments
Pound cakes originated in Europe in the first half of the 18th century and originally weighed 4 pounds! That was because a traditional pound cake contained one pound each of sugar, butter, flour and eggs.
Here’s my take on pound cake: If I could get away with it, I would slice it horizontally about 1/4 of an inch below the crusty top, take the top part and leave the rest of it for everyone else. Frankly, I love the taste of a pound cake, but find most of them too thick and a little on the dry side. That’s why I usually make a simple glaze to add some moisture.
On the other hand, coffee cake is one of my favorite cakes because of the streusel topping. What if a pound cake and coffee cake got married? That’s exactly what happened in my coffee cake pound cake.

Coffee…….that warm liquid goodness is a saving grace of mine. I know, I know. I am that person; I can’t get through the day without my cup of coffee. Yes, I am that person that can’t start my morning without that first cup of joe. Yes, don’t talk to me til that coffee is brewed.
Coffee Infused French Toast

Breakfast has always been a favorite of mine. Sadly, I have an aversion to eggs, so my options are usually limited for breakfast meals. Luckily, I found my breakfast soulmate: French toast. I’ve spent years eating French toast for breakfast but up until recently, it never occurred to me to combine my favorite breakfast and favorite drink. So, I give you coffee infused French toast.
