Valentine’s Day 2014

            This year I am in the odd position of not having an oven.  I have worn out the electric ignition switch.  That means I will be using ready-made ingredients for this Valentine’s Day dessert.

Strawberry Pound Cake

1 Frozen Pound Cake, thawed

2 qts. Fresh Strawberries

1 6 oz. container French Vanilla Yogurt

2 Tbsp. Unsalted Butter, melted

1. Heat a grill pan.
2. Cut the Pound Cake into ½” slices.
3. Brush melted Butter on one side of the Pound Cake.
4. Place Pound Cake in the grill pan, Butter side down.  Brush the second side of the Cake with Butter.
5. Grill both sides of the Pound Cake until golden and there are good grill marks.
6. Grill the rest of the slices.
7. Hull the Strawberries and cut in half.
8. Place two slices of Pound Cake on a plate.  Arrange Strawberries on top.
9. Drizzle the Yogurt over the Pound Cake and Strawberries.
