I wish I could say that winter doesn’t get me down, but it does a little bit. Here in the Northeast it’s so cold that going outside isn’t really an option I choose unless I must. But now with February upon us I feel like we’re making the slow climb out of winter. Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, and before you know it Spring Break will be reminding me that I should probably get ready for swimsuit season. So here’s the deal…I am going to try and forget it’s 30 degrees outside and make a little joy in the moment. It might be buried under the foot of snow that is still on my grass, but it’s around us for sure. And I’m just going to point out that I do believe that joy is a feeling that is experienced by all our senses…my favorite being my stomach. I know they say you shouldn’t eat your feelings blah blah, but eating some joy sounds like a plan and a half. Enter Redd-wip. Like hello people, you woosh a little Reddi-wip onto your kiddo’s ice cream sundae and tell me the major joy that they are feeling. Guarantee it’ll be the biggest smile all day. Plus, it’s only 15 calories and made from real cream, so maybe woosh a little for yourself too. When you surround yourself with joy it grows. So in my case, let’s eat all the joy! This pound cake is super easy to make…and what’s so fun about it, is I used Reddi-wip Whipped topping right in the batter! It makes the cake soft, rich and dense…the way a pound cake should be! To measure the Reddi-wip, just squeeze it right into your measuring cup… Then just tap the bottom of the measuring cup so the whipped topping settles. Add more Reddi-wip at this point until you measure the correct amount! Then fold the whipped topping right into your batter… Bake it up in a loaf pan. I like to line my pan with a strip of parchment paper, leaving the ends hanging out so the cake is super easy to remove! Once it’s baked it will be golden and gorgeous. You can eat the cake warm, at room temperature, or even cover it and save it for the next day. The great thing about pound cake is it’s usually better the second day! Of course I like to top mine with more Reddi-wip and some strawberries! J It’s such a simple, classic and delicious recipe! This is sponsored content written by me on behalf of Reddi-wip.
