Ingredients
1 pound cake (store-bought or homemade), sliced into 1 1/2-inch thick slices
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
6 ounces lemon yogurt
1/4 cup fresh blueberries
Powdered sugar, for dusting
Fresh mint leaves, for garnish (optional)
Directions
Heat a non-stick grill pan or griddle over medium heat until warm.
Brush both sides of each poundcake slice generously with the melted butter.
Place the buttered cake slices on the hot grill pan and cook for approximately 1 minute per side, until golden grill marks form and the exterior is lightly caramelized.
Transfer the grilled poundcake slices to serving plates.
Dust each slice lightly with powdered sugar.
Top each slice with a dollop of lemon yogurt and scatter fresh blueberries over the top.
Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired, and serve immediately while warm.
Comments
All ingredients are stocked year-round at every major Charlotte chain, with zero special stops required. At roughly $1.50 per serving—driven mainly by the store-bought poundcake—this is a genuine budget dessert, especially if you use store-brand yogurt and berries. The stated 10 minutes is honest; grilling takes just a few minutes once the pan heats. This is a low-fuss dessert that feeds a crowd, reheats perfectly if needed, and works whether blueberries are local (summer) or frozen (year-round), making it genuinely flexible for a weeknight.
