Espresso Pound Cake with Cranberries and Pecans

Espresso Pound Cake with Cranberries and Pecans.JPG

Espresso Pound Cake with Cranberries and Pecans is the best way to start your day! This moist and flavorful pound cake is loaded with cranberries and pecans and a hint of coffee. There is something so immensely comforting about pound cake. If it is baked correctly, it is tremendously moist, dense and buttery. Just take a look at those toasted pecans and tart cranberries piled on top of this pound cake… and don’t get me started on that amazing drizzled coffee glaze sliding down the side of the pound cake. Doesn’t it just make you want to run into the kitchen right now?
