Coffee Pecan Pound Cake! This is a wonderful cake, with a delicious flavor of coffee. Throw in some pecans and you get a good texture of the pecan, and the soft pound cake. Add a cup of tea or coffee with a slice and it makes for a lovely snack, or serve as part of an English Afternoon Tea!
I’ve made this recipe so many times, sometimes I will cut the cake in half and freeze some, and other times, for example, when I have friends over for coffee, this goes pretty quick. People are always asking for my recipe for this coffee pecan pound cake so I decided i would write it up and share it with you right here.
You will notice the bake time is longer than an average cake, and also the cooking temperature is lower. This is so the cake can cook slowly and be tender, moist and soft. if you’ve never cooked a pound cake at a lower temperature, try it!
We’ve got a lot of different pound cake recipes for you to try, ranging from our very popular Vanilla Pound Cake, to an unusual and so delicious Tiramisu Pound Cake which even uses mascarpone frosting and a lovely mascarpone filling which is characteristic of a tiramisu!
