This was delicious. The pound cake took on a delicious, toasty taste, and the cream cheese warmed to a gooey, tangy filling. I made this a bit less fancy for a sweet breakfast rather than a dessert (left out pineapple and whipped cream), but I can confidently say that it would make a fantastic dessert if made to recipe. I'll be making this again for my roommate and I this weekend!
