This homemade Greek Yogurt Vanilla Pound Cake is so simple to make. The texture is dense, tender and moist and the flavor is wonderful. We like to serve it with strawberries and fresh whipped cream.

One of my favorite simple desserts my mom would make during spring and summer was homemade pound cake with strawberries and fresh whipped cream. Nothing fancy, but sometimes the simplest desserts are the best! (Like fresh peaches over ice cream…YUM). This Greek Yogurt Vanilla Pound Cake is delicious. It’s perfectly sweet, but not overly sweet. It gets slightly crisp on the outside while being super soft on the inside. I could eat it for breakfast!

Can this be done as marble? (chocolate/vanilla)
Trying to figure out what to replace with cocoa powder for 1/2 or even 1/3 of the recipe. Any thoughts/insight on this? 🙂
I doubled the recipe and made it in a bunt style pan. It turned out delicious. I wish I could post a Pic. Great recipe.
