Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 1 cup dark brown sugar
- 5 tablespoons butter
- 2 eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- Toffee bits (quantity as desired)
- Powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions:
-
Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
-
Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan, ensuring the cake won’t stick after baking.
-
Cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar in a large bowl using an electric mixer on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy.
-
Add the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
-
Blend in the vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
-
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture, blending on low speed until smooth.
-
Stir in the toffee bits, distributing them evenly throughout the batter for that delightful crunch in every bite.
-
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared loaf pan, ensuring it fills the pan uniformly.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, indicating it’s done.
-
Allow the cake to cool for 10 minutes in the pan on a wire rack to prevent it from crumbling when removed.
-
Carefully invert the cake onto the wire rack to cool completely, ensuring it retains its shape and texture.
-
Once cooled, dust the top of the cake with powdered sugar for a sweet finishing touch.
-
For an extra indulgence, sprinkle additional toffee bits over the powdered sugar, adding both flavor and visual appeal to your Toffee Pound Cake.
-
Slice and serve this irresistible treat alongside your favorite hot beverage or a scoop of ice cream for a delightful dessert experience.
Enjoy the rich, buttery goodness and delightful toffee crunch of this Toffee Pound Cake, perfect for any occasion, whether it’s a cozy weeknight treat or a special dessert to impress your guests!
