Materials

  • 4 slices pound cake Sliced into 1.5" pieces
  • 1/4 cup raw almonds
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries and/or other fresh fruit
  • 4 scoops vanilla ice cream
  • 4 sprigs fresh mint to garnish Optional

Instructions

  • Add your raw almonds onto a baking tray and bake at 300 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 minutes. Take out the tray halfway through and give the tray a gentle shake to ensure the almonds cook on both sides. Once they are done cooking, remove the tray from the oven and allow to fully cool (about 20 minutes) before chopping.
  • Slice your Costco pound cake into 1.5" slices
  • To make your chocolate sauce, add about 1/4 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1 tbsp of milk to a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at 15 second intervals until chocolate is fully melted. Use a spoon to stir the chocolate in between each interval.
  • Lay pound cake slices on a hot grill or grill pan for about a minute on each side until grill marks form and the cake is toasted and place in a bowl or plate.
  • Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top of each cake slice. Drizzle the chocolate sauce over the ice cream then add the roasted nuts. Add some fresh berries and garnish with fresh mint before serving.
