Pound cake is a dessert that will be sure to make your cupid’s heart flutter!  It’s easy to bake and most people love the rich, buttery flavor…including my family!  Each year on Valentine’s Day I  serve our favorite little cake all dressed up in holiday style!  It’s such a delicious way to celebrate February 14th AND I truly enjoy this simple tradition that we all look forward to!  Even though Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, you still have plenty of time to bake a goodie (or two) to present to your Valentines!  So today I’m sharing my favorite pound cake recipe (with a fun flavor twist) and a sweet way to serve it!  Who knows, this might become your new holiday tradition too!  Let’s get right to it…

treat your peeps to a holiday pound cake!

We have a fun Valentine tradition…in stead of going crazy on lots of holiday candy, I serve up one of my family’s favorite cakes instead!  It might surprise you to hear that this cake, that’s an anticipated treat in my household of boys, is a Lavender Poundcake!  I know it sounds a little dainty and sweet, and I have served it to my gal pals and at baby & wedding showers…but this mini cake sure packs a punch of buttery goodness and density that will satisfy any guy in a big way!   And because it’s such a rich dessert I usually save it for special occasions…like Valentine’s Day!  So each holiday I try to come up with a new look for our miniature cake…which for me is almost as enjoyable as eating it!  Today I’d like to share with you the recipe for this fun and unique poundcake…plus another recipe for an equally festive dessert that’s more semi-homemade but still perfect for Cupid!  So find your apron and get the kitchen ready for some baking joy and…

share some Valentine sugar!
