Ingredients for Balsamic Strawberries And Ice Cream On Pound Cake

  • 1 pint (approx. 15-20) fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 2 tablespoons caster sugar
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar (high-quality recommended)
  • Poundcake
  • Vanilla Ice Cream

How to Make Balsamic Strawberries And Ice Cream On Pound Cake

  1. In a medium-sized frying pan, combine sliced strawberries and caster sugar over medium-high heat.
  2. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the strawberries begin to soften and release their juices.
  3. Reduce heat to medium-low. Add balsamic vinegar and cook for an additional 2 minutes, or until the sauce slightly thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
  4. Lightly toast the pound cake slices.
  5. Top each slice of pound cake with the balsamic strawberries.
  6. Serve immediately with a scoop of ice cream. Garnish with fresh mint (optional).

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
