Condensed Milk Pound Cake is a buttery, rich, and dense pound cake sweetened with sweetened condensed milk. Topped with whipped cream and fresh berries, it makes a delightful summer dessert.
With just the right amount of sweetness, Condensed Milk Pound Cake also makes an indulgent breakfast with a cup of coffee. It would be perfect for cubing and forming into a trifle for the 4th of July with lots of strawberries and blueberries and whipped cream.
Only your basic pound cake ingredients are needed for this cake plus a can of sweetened condensed milk.
Unfortunately the recipe does not use the entire can of sweetened condensed milk, and yes, it is a little bit aggravating to have some left in the can.
But just think of all the ways you can use those leftovers.
My favorite way is to grab a spoon and go to town. Sweetened condensed milk does taste like the nectar of the Gods so why not just eat it plain?
Or you can add it to your coffee, smoothie, or oatmeal. Drizzle it on pancakes or waffles. Or cut some fresh peaches in half, drizzle them with sweetened condensed milk and roast them until the sugar starts to caramelize.

I made it too! My boyfriend couldn’t stop eating it!
Thank you for sharing!
I just found and purchased chocolate flavored and caramel flavored condensed milk….think these would make a good change?
I bet they would! Especially the caramel. I might have to try that myself. 🙂
Oh my word! This cake is absolutely delicious. I didn’t realise until I was putting the ingredients together that I didn’t have vanilla extract… so I used coffee instead. I was afraid it wouldn’t turn out well but it was fantastic! My mother and brothers loved it (and devoured it…) Thank you for this yummy recipe!
