Cream Cheese Pound Cake is a summer favorite around here. There are so many ways to change the recipe for your different events or even for family favorites. One of the best ways to serve this pound cake is with fresh berries. We pick strawberries, blueberries or ever raspberries. You could even mix the berries up to serve with this pound cake. The best part of this cake is the cream cheese. I had not heard of cream cheese pound cake when I was growing up, but we did always have pound cake. This cake is also good to make as a bundt cake and not just as a pound cake loaf like we had growing up.
If you don’t want to use fresh berries or if making this during the fall or winter, maybe think about a glaze to go over the pound cake. You could even just sprinkle powdered sugar over it all. There is no limit to how to serve this wonder pound cake.
