This Raspberry White Chocolate Pound Cake is the perfect way to start your day. The combination of fresh raspberries and melted white chocolate is simply delicious!
Hi everyone! It’s Gina from Kleinworth & Co. again. It’s almost Valentine’s Day!!! My focus on most holidays is to make it memorable for my kids. I think it’s fun to make the whole day special from start to finish. So I created a yummy little treat to share with loved ones for a great Valentine breakfast. Having a special breakfast sets the tone for the rest of the day & really says “I LOVE YOU” to all you share it with. I love a good pound cake (well- I really love all cake) & knew I wanted to start with that for this breakfast treat. But then I had to throw in some special ingredients to make it SCREAM – Valentine Breakfast.
What is it about pound cake that says “don’t worry that it’s cake, it’s okay to have it for breakfast”? Or is that just me?? Yep- I’m a firm believer in cake for breakfast. Why not start your day of with a smile?! Besides- then I have all day to work it off. Or at least that’s the reasoning behind it. Sometimes that doesn’t always work out. But at least in these cold winter months I can justify it by a few hours of shoveling the driveway later on. Soooo- anyhow…. I enjoyed every single bite. The hubs was terribly sad that I only made one. He has already put in a special request for several more to share again on Valentine’s Day.
