Receta Grilled Lemon Cream Cheese Pound Cake with Amos' Lemon Marmalade
This pound cake is adapted from two recipes in the King Arthur Baking Companion Cookbook. I made Chef Amos Miller's Lemon Marmalade this week with lemons off our Meyer lemon tree. The marmalade sounded like a great match for this pound cake. I grilled the pound cake slices on the grill for a crunchy outside with a soft interior which I soaked with a sweet lemon syrup before grilling. Served with the marmalade, the best vanilla ice cream you can find, mint and sprinkled with confectioner's sugar it makes for a decadent dessert. Thanks Amos for the great marmalade recipe. Enjoy!
