Raspberry Pound Cake With Vin Santo Cream Food

LEMON AND RASPBERRY POUND CAKE

Steps:

• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Put the raspberries in a bowl and set aside.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream together the granulated sugar and butter. Add the eggs 1 at a time, mixing after each addition. Turn the mixer to low and gradually add all but 2 tablespoons of the flour (reserve the 2 tablespoons for the raspberries). Add the lemonade and salt and mix until combined. Add the lemon zest and mix. Scrape the bowl.
• Toss the remaining 2 tablespoons flour with the raspberries in the bowl; this will stop them from sinking. Fold the raspberries into the batter with a spatula.
• Butter and flour a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan. Pour the batter into the loaf pan and even out the surface. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center does not come out totally clean but isn't wet with batter either, 1 hour and 15 minutes to 1 hour and 30 minutes. Let the cake sit in the pan for 30 minutes, then carefully turn it out onto a cooling rack set over a baking sheet to cool.
• For the glaze: Combine the powdered sugar, lemon zest and juice, salt and 2 tablespoons water in a bowl. Gently whisk until thick but pourable, adding a little more water if needed. Drizzle the glaze over the cake and let set.

POUND CAKE WITH LIMONCELLO ZABAGLIONE

Steps:

• For the berries: Mix together the berries, lemon juice, limoncello and sugar in a medium bowl. Crush the berries gently, using the back of a fork. Set aside for at least 30 minutes to let the juices develop and the flavors mingle.
• For the limoncello zabaglione: Fill a medium saucepan with 2 inches of water and bring to a simmer over medium heat. In a heat-proof medium bowl that fits comfortably over the saucepan without touching the water, combine the egg yolks, limoncello, sugar, lemon zest and lemon juice. Using an electric mixer, beat on low speed until smooth and incorporated. Place the bowl over the simmering water and continue beating until a thick ribbon remains in the mixture when the beaters are lifted out, about 10 minutes. Remove the bowl from the saucepan and continue to beat for another 2 minutes to prevent the egg from cooking. Cool to room temperature.
• To serve, place a 3/4-inch-thick slice of pound cake on a plate. Top with a spoonful of the berries and a dollop of the zabaglione.

RASPBERRY-SWIRL POUND CAKE

Steps:

• Make the pound cake: Preheat the oven to 350˚. Butter the bottom and sides of a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan, then line with parchment paper in two overlapping strips, leaving an overhang. Butter the parchment and lightly dust with flour, tapping out the excess.
• Combine the fresh raspberries, jam, 2 tablespoons cane sugar and 1/4 cup water in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring and smashing the berries with a wooden spoon, until thickened, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium bowl, pressing with a rubber spatula. Let cool.
• Whisk the eggs, egg yolk, 1/4 cup heavy cream, 1 teaspoon vanilla and 3/4 teaspoon almond extract in a medium bowl until slightly foamy; set aside. Beat the butter and remaining 1 cup cane sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until well combined, 1 to 2 minutes. Scrape down the bowl and increase the mixer speed to medium high. Beat until pale and fluffy, 6 to 7 more minutes. Reduce the mixer speed to low and beat in the flour until just combined. Gradually add the egg mixture and beat until combined. Scrape down the bowl, increase the speed to medium and beat until smooth and fluffy, 15 to 30 seconds.
• Scoop 1 cup batter into the bowl with the raspberry sauce and stir in the red food coloring. Transfer half of the remaining plain batter to the prepared pan and top with half of the raspberry batter; swirl together with a knife. Repeat and swirl the batters together again. Bake until the top springs back when gently pressed and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 1 hour 10 minutes to 1 hour 20 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool 15 minutes in the pan. Lift the cake from the pan and remove the parchment; return to the rack to cool completely.
• Make the glaze: Combine the confectioners' sugar, 2 tablespoons heavy cream and the remaining 1/8 teaspoon each vanilla and almond extracts in a medium bowl and whisk until smooth; thin with the remaining 1 tablespoon heavy cream, if needed. Spoon the glaze over the cooled cake and sprinkle with freeze-dried raspberries. Let set at least 20 minutes.

RASPBERRY MARBLE POUND CAKE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C).
• In a medium saucepan, combine the raspberries, 1 cup sugar, and the water and bring to boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally and mashing the raspberries with the back of a wooden spoon. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 20-25 minutes, until slightly thickened. Strain the raspberry mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium bowl, discarding the seeds. Cover and set aside to cool at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the butter, remaining 2½ cups sugar, and salt. Beat on medium speed for about 6 minutes, until light and fluffy. Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula and beat again for 1-2 minutes, until fully incorporated. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the buttermilk and vanilla.
• Add a third of the flour mixture and beat on medium speed until incorporated. Add half of the sour cream and beat until incorporated. Continue alternating additions of flour and sour cream, scraping down the sides of the bowl between each addition. Beat on medium speed after all of the flour is incorporated for about 1 minute, until the batter is well combined.
• Transfer a third of the batter to a medium bowl and add the cooled raspberry purée, folding to incorporate. Add the pink food coloring, if using.
• Grease a 12-inch Bundt pan with nonstick spray and dust with flour.
• Scoop half the plain batter into the prepared Bundt pan. Scoop the raspberry batter on top, using an offset spatula or the back of a spoon to smooth evenly. Scoop the remaining plain batter on top of the raspberry layer and smooth evenly. Using a skewer or knife, swirl the batters together.
• Bake the cake for 75-85 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted to the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for 20 minutes, then invert onto a plate and unmold from the pan. Let cool completely on a wire rack, about 1 hour.
• While the cake is cooling, make the cream cheese icing: In a large bowl, combine the cream cheese and butter. Whip with an electric hand mixer until smooth, 1-2 minutes. Add the powdered sugar and whip on medium-low speed until incorporated, scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary. Add the vanilla, salt, and heavy cream, as needed, and whip until the icing is smooth and thick, yet pourable.
• Pour the icing over the top of the cooled cake, letting it drip down the sides. Arrange the raspberries around the top of the cake, spacing evenly. Let the icing set completely, about 30 minutes, then dust with powdered sugar.
• Slice and serve.
• Enjoy!

RASPBERRY POUND CAKE WITH VIN SANTO CREAM

Steps:

• Place an oven rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter and flour a 9 x 5 x 3-inch nonstick loaf pan.
• In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, orange zest, cinnamon, and salt. Whisk to combine. Place 3 tablespoons of the flour mixture in a small bowl. Add the mashed raspberries and gently toss until coated (the mixture may clump).
• In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the granulated sugar and butter until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. With the machine running, add the eggs one at a time. Add the vanilla extract. Add the dry ingredients, a small amount at a time, mixing until just incorporated. Gently fold in the raspberries with a rubber spatula (see Cook's Note).
• Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and bake until a cake tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool for 20 minutes. Remove the cake from the pan and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
• To make the vin santo cream: In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip the heavy cream until it holds soft peaks. Add the vanilla extract, confectioners' sugar, and vin santo. Continue to whip until the cream holds stiff peaks.
• Transfer the pound cake to a serving platter. Slice and serve with a dollop of the vin santo cream.
• Make sure you barely fold in the mashed raspberries so you get a pretty marbled effect; if you mix too vigorously, the raspberries will break down and turn the pound cake purple.
