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 this and it was delicious! I was just trying to use up some sweetened condensed milk that one of my family cracked open for coffee. The cake was delicious and everyone enjoyed it.
Delicious!
I’m a pound cake fan, and this is among the best. I made it as directed, with the full amount of sugar, and it was not too sweet. I may have let everything mix for somewhat longer, since mine was not crumbly, but that’s the way I like it. Someone talked about putting some foil on top after a bit, so the inside will cook without burning the outside; good idea. It’s a keeper!
Oh – and the recipe doesn’t specify salted or unsalted butter. I always use unsalted in baking. Someone had commented about it being (salty); maybe that’s why? Maybe they used salted butter? Good pound cake!
Don’t have baking powder so could I use SRF and omit salt and baking powder
