Ingredients
Ingredients for the Pound Cake
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
¼ tsp salt
1 cup granulated sugar
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ cup whole milk
Ingredients for the Peach Filling
2 cups fresh peaches, peeled and diced
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 tbsp cornstarch
1 tbsp lemon juice
Ingredients for the Glaze
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tbsp heavy cream or milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
Prepare the Pound Cake Batter
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a Twinkie or mini loaf pan. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, then mix in vanilla. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet, alternating with milk, until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, filling each mold about ¾ full.
Bake the Pound Cake
Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool completely before filling.
Make the Peach Filling
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the peaches, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Cook, stirring, until the peaches are soft and the mixture thickens. Let the filling cool.
Fill the Pound Cakes
Use a small knife or skewer to hollow out the center of each cake. Spoon or pipe the peach filling into the hollowed centers.
Make the Glaze
Whisk together powdered sugar, cream, and vanilla until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the cakes.
Serve
Allow the glaze to set for a few minutes. Enjoy these handheld peach cobbler delights!
