Yield 7 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

16 oz pound cake
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
canola oil, for brushing
1 qt fresh strawberry , stemmed and hulled
½ pt fresh blackberry
½ cup sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 cups whipped cream, lightly sweetened, for serving
grill
8 bamboo skewers, soaked in water for 20 mins

Steps:

  • Clean the grill grates if necessary. Preheat the grill on high heat for 10 minutes.
  • Slice the pound cake into 7 1-inch (2 ½ cm) slices. LIghtly brush both sides of each slice with melted butter. Set aside.
  • Hold a paper towel between tongs and dip it in the canola oil. Carefully oil the grill grates.
  • Thread about 4 strawberries onto each bamboo skewer. Place the skewers on the oiled grates, cover, and grill for 2 minutes on each side without disturbing, until the strawberries have grill marks. Transfer the skewered strawberries to a cutting board and let cool slightly.
  • Reduce the grill to medium-high heat.
  • Cut the strawberries in half lengthwise. Transfer to a large bowl with the blackberries, sugar, and lemon juice and toss well. Let the berries macerate while you grill the pound cake.
  • Arrange the slices of cake on the grates, cover, and grill for 2 minutes, then flip and grill on the other side for 2 minutes more, until the cake is well toasted with grill marks.
  • Transfer the grilled cake to serving plates and top with a dollop of whipped cream and the macerated berries.
  • Enjoy!
