Notes
– For a deeper peach flavor, you can replace 1/4 cup of the butter with peach preserves.
– Serve the pound cake with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce for an extra indulgent treat.
– Store leftovers at room temperature for up to 4 days or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
