Grilled pound cake pairs beautifully with homemade whipped cream and fresh strawberries in this grilled strawberry shortcake!
I am SO excited to be sharing this recipe with you today!
Last year when I asked what you wanted to see more of on the blog, lots of you said that you love recipes that put a fun twist on classic desserts. So here you have it! One of the most quintessential summer desserts - strawberry shortcake - gets a fun upgrade that makes this the PERFECT dessert for all of your summer BBQs!
This grilled strawberry shortcake recipe uses three classic dessert staples - pound cake, homemade whipped cream, and fresh strawberries - to elevate one of the most popular summer dessert recipes.
I have been craving ALL THE FRUIT since I've been pregnant, so fruity summer desserts are totally my jam right now! I am obsessed with the flavors of this grilled strawberry shortcake. Toasty, buttery pound cake paired with sweet strawberries and light-as-air whipped cream makes for one heck of a summer treat!
And if you're hosting friends for dinner on the grill, they're sure to be impressed when you toss slices of pound cake on the grill for dessert.
From now on, I'm thinking all summer BBQs should include grilled desserts!
