Ingredients
One 16-ounce frozen pound cake, thawed
One 29-ounce can sliced peaches, drained and juice reserved
1/4 cup peach preserves
Pinch kosher salt
6 tablespoons brown sugar
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
Fresh basil, to garnish
Directions
- Remove the pound cake from its pan and line the pan with plastic wrap, leaving plenty of overhang.
- Slice the cake horizontally into 3 equal slices.
- Mix the peaches, preserves, salt and 3 tablespoons brown sugar in a bowl, then set aside.
- Add the heavy cream, remaining 3 tablespoons brown sugar and 2 tablespoons of the reserved peach juices to a bowl. Whip until firm peaks form.
- Place one slice of cake in the bottom of the lined pan and press to slightly flatten. Top with a third of the whipped cream and a thin layer of the peach mixture. Repeat the process 2 more times, saving the rest of the peaches to serve with the cake.
- Loosely cover with the overhanging plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 hours. Cover and reserve any extra peach mixture for serving.
- To serve, carefully lift the cake from the pan using the plastic wrap, then discard the wrap. Place a few basil leaves over the top. Slice and serve with the reserved peaches spooned over the top.
