Only your basic pound cake ingredients are needed for this cake plus a can of sweetened condensed milk. For flavoring there’s vanilla extract and just a little almond extract.

Unfortunately the recipe does not use the entire can of sweetened condensed milk, and yes, it is a little bit aggravating to have some left in the can.

But just think of all the ways you can use those leftovers.

My favorite way is to grab a spoon and go to town. Sweetened condensed milk does taste like the nectar of the Gods so why not just eat it plain?

Sweetened Condensed Milk Pound Cake is perfect for dessert or breakfast.

Or you can add it to your coffee, smoothie, or oatmeal. Drizzle it on pancakes or waffles. Or cut some fresh peaches in half, drizzle them with sweetened condensed milk and roast them until the sugar starts to caramelize.

Sweetened Condensed Milk Pound Cake has just the right amount of sweetness and goes wonderfully with fresh berries.

Measure The Flour Correctly

To get the proper texture it is so important to measure the flour correctly. Too much flour will result in a dry cake. To measure correctly, first fluff the flour up with a spoon in the bag or container. Next gently scoop it with a spoon into a dry measuring cup. Overfill slightly and then run the back of a knife across the top to get rid of the excess.

Storage

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 5 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
