Make Pound Cake With Lemon Cream And Blueberry Sauce, for a wonderfully decadent dessert your family or guests will really enjoy! 
A few years ago my husband and I were invited to some dear friends’ home for dinner. Our hostess asked me to bring dessert. I decided to “make something on the fly”, without a recipe, and this Pound Cake With Lemon Cream and Blueberry Sauce is the result!
Layers of pound cake, covered in lemon cream cheese filling, then topped with blueberry pie filling is a wonderful, easy to prepare dessert.
I assembled this dessert at our friends home, so I didn’t take many photos. The picture you see above is the one I DO have of the finished dessert. We brought the components separately (bowl of lemon cream, blueberry pie filling and pound cake).
If you use purchased pound cake and canned blueberry pie filling, then all you do is make the easy lemon topping, and the rest is SIMPLE! Here’s how to make 4 servings of this delicious dessert.
Make Or Purchase The Pound Cake
The recipe is made easier (and quicker) by using store bought pound cake in loaf form and canned blueberry pie filling, which can be a real time-saver!
The picture below shows a homemade pound cake loaf. You will need 8 thin slices of pound cake for this recipe.
Want To Make Your Own Blueberry Pie Filling?
If you do not have a can of blueberry filling on hand, it’s easy and fairly quick make your own! You can use my recipe here, if desired. You will need a total of 2 cups of blueberry pie filling for this recipe.
Time To Create This Layered Dessert!
Cut the loaf of pound cake into 8 equal sized thin slices. Put one slice of pound cake on each dessert plate. Spoon lemon cream cheese topping over each slice, followed by a generous spoonful of blueberry pie filling.
Place another slice of pound cake on top of the blueberry pie filling (but turn this slice a quarter turn).
Top the second slice with another spoonful of lemon cream cheese topping, followed by more blueberry pie filling.
Make sure the filling runs over the sides of the pound cake (to make it look nice!). Garnish the pound cake with lemon cream and blueberry sauce with a couple of mint leaves and candied lemon peel. The garnish is optional, but adds a nice decorative touch!
Hope you will give this easy dessert a try! It’s a piece of CAKE!
