Rating
Salted Caramel Pound Cake is the stuff of DREAMS.
Ingredients
- Cooking spray
- 1 c. (2 sticks) butter, softened
- 1 c. granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 2 c. all-purpose flour
- 1½ tsp. baking powder
- 1 tsp. kosher salt
- ¼ c. caramel sauce, plus more for topping
- Flaky sea salt, for topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° and grease a 9”-x-5” loaf pan with cooking spray. In a large bowl with a hand mixer, beat together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- In a medium bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Fold dry ingredients into wet ingredients and stir until just combined. Scrape ¼ of batter into a medium bowl and fold in caramel sauce until combined.
- Alternating between batters, spoon large dollops into prepared pan. Insert a wooden skewer into the pan, so it touches the bottom and make four figure-eight patterns. Remove skewer.
- Bake until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean, about 1 hour.
- Let cool 10 minutes then invert onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
- Drizzle cooled cake with more caramel and sprinkle with sea salt.
