Great for dessert or even for brunch, this rich store-bought pound-cake gets warm and crisp like French toast. A scoop of ice cream, yogurt or whipped cream is the perfect finishing touch.
2 tbsp honey
454-g pkg strawberries, hulled and quartered
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint leaves
304-g pkg pound cake, preferably Sara Lee, cut into 8 1-in. slices
POUR honey into a medium bowl. Add strawberries and mint. Stir to coat and set aside, stirring occasionally.
PREHEAT oven to 400F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread out cake slices on parchment. Toast in centre of oven, flipping halfway through, until lightly toasted, 5 to 7 min.
ASSEMBLE by placing cake on plates and topping with strawberries. Drizzle with strawberry juice and add a scoop of ice cream (optional but good).
