Here Comes the Bride

by Sara Daniel

I created this flavorful recipe in celebration of my new series One Night with the Bridal Party. This is the perfect dessert for a bridal shower or post-wedding brunch. It's also delicious with a cup of tea and a good book.


Pound Cake with Fresh Strawberries
1 cup butter, room temperature
1 cup sugar
4 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
¼ tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. baking powder
2 cups flour
Fresh Strawberries – sliced

Preheat oven to at 325° F.

Grease and flour a 9 X 5 loaf pan.

Beat butter with an electric mixer for 1 minute.

Add sugar to butter, a bit at a time, beating on medium/high for 5 minutes or until light and fluffy.

Add eggs one at a time, beating for one minute after each egg, and scraping the bowl. Add vanilla and beat for another minute.

Gradually add nutmeg, baking powder, and flour, beat on low/medium until just combined.

Pour into prepared pan. Bake 1 hour.

Cool and slice. Serve with fresh strawberries.

Here's a little about my One Night with the Bridal Party series.

Whether the one-night stand occurs a week before their scheduled wedding or seven years later, meet six couples for whom one night will turn a fairy tale wedding from a mistake into a happily ever after.

  2. Hmmm....any way to take those pounds out of your pound cake, Sara? Wink. Best wishes for bestsellers, my friend.

  3. Strawberry season is one for the senses. I love the fragrance of fresh berries that please me even before they are popped into my mouth. The cake sounds delicious.
    Good luck on your release. <s

  4. Sharon, if I find a way, I'll share my secret! Emma, my grandparents had a strawberry patch on their farm, and I have wonderful memories of picking strawberries with my grandma. Yes, so many senses become engaged! My mouth is watering now! Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
