    Brown Butter Pound Cake with Figs - a guest post at Go Bake Yourself

    Brown Butter Pound Cake with Figs
    This is what I choose to share today with you. I'm guest posting over at Go Bake Yourself, with the hilarious, too wise for her age Choc Chip Uru as my lovely host.
    It's a melt-in-your-mouth (really it is) pound cake, made even better by browning the butter.
    The loaf cake in itself is amazing, but the fig compote on top of it just makes it delectable. Brown butter and fresh figs, you just need your cup of tea, or coffee.
    If you happen to be in the small percentage of food bloggers or readers who hasn't yet bumped into Uru's site, and stayed there for hours, go check this recipe out.
    Say hi to her, and then get your daily dose of laughter reading her blog.
    Go!

      I would pick this over any decadent chocolate dessert! What a perfect pound cake! I totally agree with you about Uru...I was nowhere near as mature and driven at that age! Will pop over to see your recipe soon 🙂

      Adding brown butter to pound cake sounds so rich and decadent. Love it, Paula! Too bad I'll have to wait months for fig season to try the compote.

      Paula, it was a pleasure reading your guest post on Uru's blog! I just got done browning the butter, per your descriptive directions, and can hardly wait for it to cool so I can put the rest of the pound cake together. You have "upped" a Southern dessert and made it even better! Thanks again.
