Almond Joy has to be one of the most delicious candy bars in the world, and it has always been a really big favorite of mine. When I found this awesome Almond Joy pound cake recipe by Yoyomax12 The Diet Free Zone, on YouTube, I was in awe of these 3 gorgeous flavors melding together. The recipe is to make a scratch pound cake, which is very easy, but if you are in a pinch and need a quick dessert, you can use a store-bought pound cake and make the homemade coconut part and the homemade ganache. You would then assemble your cake in the same exact way, but you have saved a lengthy step.
