Description

I call this grilled shortcake, even though it’s really pound cake, and really good. Grilling the cake adds a delicious new dimension to this classic summer dessert.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound Fresh Strawberries, Sliced
  • ¾ cups Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt (to Aid In Maceration)
  • ⅛ teaspoons Ground Ginger
  • ⅛ teaspoons Ground Allspice
  • 1 pound Pound Cake (I Used Butter Pound Cake)
  • Whipped Cream, To Serve

Preparation

Combine the strawberries, sugar, salt, ginger, and allspice in a large mixing bowl and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour, stirring occasionally.

If your grill isn’t already hot, prepare it for direct cooking at medium heat (about 350ºF).

Cut the pound cake into 1 1/2″ slices, and spray each side lightly with canola oil.

Grill the cake slices until they are toasty and have grill marks on each side. You’ll know that they’re ready to flip when you start to smell a toasty marshmallow aroma and see slight wisps of smoke.

Serve each slice topped with a good amount of the berry mixture and whipped cream.

Enjoy!

Now I wish I had a grill! Last year, when my parents’ oven broke on my dad’s birthday, we grilled the cakes I’d whipped up. Never knew this was an actual thing! It looks delicious. :)
