Lemon Eggnog Pound Cake
This post was contributed by Lolo Home Kitchen.
Lemon Eggnog Pound Cake is one spring recipe you need to try. It’s spring and that means it’s time for lemon desserts and eggnog? Yep, Eggnog.
I paired my favorite Lemon Pound Cake recipe with the creamy, nutmeg flavors of Eggnog right into the batter. This is now a Lemon Eggnog Pound Cake and the texture is super moist and springy from the creaminess of the eggnog. The flavor of this Eggnog Pound Cake is a mix of lemon custard mixed with a hint of cinnamon. It’s so good!
