Pound cakes are in many ways the building blocks of great desserts. With a moist, delicious slice of pound cake as a starting point, you can create a delicious sundae, a beautiful trifle, or simply enjoy it with a spread with a cup of coffee or tea. This rich chocolate pound cake makes a great snack with a little bit of peanut butter on top.
