Today, I tried making a pound cake with buttercream filling.
The finished cake had a strong salty butter flavor, and the rum aroma was a bit subdued, but it was delicious. The cake itself was moist with a good amount of elasticity, and it paired well with the buttercream. I think it would be even more delicious if made with unsalted butter.

Buttercream Pound Cake Recipe (Instructions)
・First, I put 1 egg, 50g sugar, and 20g canola oil into a bowl and mixed them well with a hand mixer.


・Next, I added 20g of soy milk and mixed it well with a hand mixer.

・Then, after sifting 50g of flour, I gently mixed it in with a spatula. This completed the batter.


・I poured the batter into pound cake molds. I prepared two molds so I could make two thin cakes to sandwich the buttercream in between.

・I placed them in a preheated oven at 180℃ and baked for 20 minutes.


・To make the cake moist, I drizzled 15g of rum over it, then covered it with plastic wrap and refrigerated it for a day.

・After chilling in the refrigerator, I sandwiched the buttercream (30g butter and 15g sugar mixed well from last time) between the cakes, and it was complete.



・The finished cake had a strong salty butter flavor, and the rum aroma was a bit subdued, but it was delicious. The cake itself was moist with a good amount of elasticity, and it paired well with the buttercream. I think it would be even more delicious if made with unsalted butter.
