As we inch closer and closer to the holidays, I’m reminded of just how fast this year has really gone by.

I say this every year, but I really feel like it was just last Christmas. January seems like it was just here, with the bitter cold temps, and now, we’re just a few weeks away from my least favorite month of this year.

And if you live in the Midwest, you probably agree with me. Negative temps, snow, and I just don’t mix.

But peppermint and I? We go way back. It’s a classic holiday flavor for me, and hopefully for you, too. I love peppermint white hot chocolate, peppermint fudge, no-bake cheesecakes, and peppermint hot chocolate cookies. In other words, if peppermint is an ingredient in a holiday goodies, then sign me up.

I’ve already shared these peppermint hot chocolate cookies with you, and boy, were those a hit! I knew you would like them as much as me (and if you haven’t tried them yet, what are you waiting for?). So since I’m on a peppermint kick, I decided to make another festive treat for the holiday season.

Besides the light and fluffy texture and decadent taste, what makes this Vanilla Pound Cake so special is the Almond Breeze Almondmilk Vanilla Cashewmilk that is used in both the batter and glaze. It gives this dessert a hint of vanilla, while adding a touch of moistness.

I’m a big fan of Almond Breeze Almondmilk, so when I heard that they came out with a Cashewmilk Blend, I couldn’t wait to try it. This Vanilla Cashewmilk is smooth, creamy, with hints and cashews and vanilla. It’s filled with protein and also serves as a perfect ingredient in this festive holiday treat.

And like most of my recipes, this Vanilla Pound Cake with Peppermint Glaze is so easy to make. The batter contains just a few ingredients and is ready to bake in just about 10 minutes.

And the peppermint glaze is filled with powdered sugar, Almond Breeze Almondmilk Vanilla Cashewmilk, peppermint extract, and crushed candy canes. You just can’t get more merry and bright than with this cake!

One bite and you will have found your newest addition to your holiday dessert table. This Vanilla Pound Cake with Peppermint Glaze is full of flavor and has a texture that will impress you and your holiday guests.
