Raspberry Pound Cake with Vin Santo Cream

  1. Place an oven rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat the oven to 350F.
  2. Butter and flour a 9 x 5 x 3-inch nonstick loaf pan.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, orange zest, cinnamon, and salt.
  4. Whisk to combine.
  5. Place 3 tablespoons of the flour mixture in a small bowl.
  6. Add the mashed raspberries and gently toss until coated (the mixture may clump).
  7. In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the granulated sugar and butter until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  8. With the machine running, add the eggs one at a time.
  9. Add the vanilla extract.
  10. Add the dry ingredients, a small amount at a time, mixing until just incorporated.
  11. Gently fold in the raspberries with a rubber spatula (see Cooks Note).
  12. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and bake until a cake tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 1 hour.
  13. Cool for 20 minutes.
  14. Remove the cake from the pan and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  15. To make the vin santo cream: In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip the heavy cream until it holds soft peaks.
  16. Add the vanilla extract, confectioners sugar, and vin santo.
  17. Continue to whip until the cream holds stiff peaks.
  18. Transfer the pound cake to a serving platter.
  19. Slice and serve with a dollop of the vin santo cream.
  20. Make sure you barely fold in the mashed raspberries so you get a pretty marbled effect; if you mix too vigorously, the raspberries will break down and turn the pound cake purple.
