Recipe: Yummy Earl Grey Tea Pound Cake

Recipe: Yummy Earl Grey Tea Pound Cake Delicious, fresh and tasty.

Earl Grey Tea Pound Cake. These tea cakes resemble the texture and flavor of a traditional pound cake, but I like to kick up the flavor a notch by adding some Earl Grey tea, stepped in warm milk. It's such a lovely flavor for a buttery pound cake and when combined with a little orange zest it definitely makes this cake otherworldly. This Earl Grey Tea Cake Loaf is a fragrant pound cake loaf infused with tea in two ways and then brushed with lemon and honey while still hot.

Just a little bit different and the taste is surprising!!

This cake is a winner on account of its lightly sweet flavor AND its delectable aroma.

It made the Test Kitchen smell absolutely WONDERFUL while baking.
