I borrowed this recipe from Giada on FoodTV It is delicious. Ingredients:
1 vanilla flavored poundcake, cut crosswise into 1/2 inch slices. (10 3/4 ounces, even number) |
3/4 cup apricot preserves (or jam put in blender) |
3 tablespoons amaretto |
mascarpone cheese, at room temperature |
sliced almonds, toasted |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Place the pound cake slices on a baking sheet and toast in oven until the slices turn golden brown. (or put in toaster).
3. Stir the apricot preserves and amaretto together. Warm slightly.
4. Place 1/2 of the cake slices on plates. Put 1 full tablespoon mascarpone cheese on each cake slice. Put the remaining cake slices at an offset on top of the cheese. Spoon the apricot/amaretto mixture on top of the cake. Add the almonds. Serve immediately while warm.
