Small pound cakes with sauce are an elegant and delicious dessert that you can easily make at home. These cakes are perfect for a dinner party or a special occasion, but can also be enjoyed as an afternoon treat. The soft, moist cake is infused with the rich of vanilla, while the tangy clementine sauce adds a burst of fruity freshness. In this article, we’ll go through the step-by-step for making these delightful cakes.

Ingredients:

– 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
– 3/4 cup granulated sugar
– 2 large eggs
– 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
– 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 cup buttermilk
– 2 clementines, peeled and segmented
– 1/4 cup fresh clementine juice
– 1/4 cup granulated sugar

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Line a muffin tin with 12 paper liners.

2. Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.

3. Using an electric mixer on medium-high speed, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, which should take about 5 minutes. Beat in the eggs one at a time, and then mix in the vanilla extract.

4. Reduce the mixer speed to low, and gradually mix in the dry ingredients in 3 parts, alternating with the buttermilk in 2 parts, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Scrape the bowl as needed.

5. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cake comes out clean.

6. While the cakes are baking, make the clementine sauce. In a small saucepan, combine the segmented clementines, clementine juice, and sugar. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture has thickened, which will take around 10 minutes.

7. Remove the pan from heat and let the sauce cool.

8. Once the cakes are done, let them cool completely in the pan before removing them. You can use a sharp knife to loosen the cakes from the edges of the pan if needed.

9. Drizzle the clementine sauce over the cakes before serving.

These small vanilla pound cakes with clementine sauce are sure to impress any dessert lover. They’re light, fluffy, and bursting with flavor. You can top them with additional fruit or whipped cream for an even more luxurious dessert experience. Serve them up at your next dinner party or make a batch for an afternoon snack – they’re perfect for any occasion.
