Chai Spice Pound Cake with Cinnamon Glaze

This Chai Spice Pound Cake with Cinnamon Glaze is a perfectly simple easy-to-make dessert made with sour cream, chai spices, and a sweet & spicy cinnamon glaze.
Pound cake is one of my favourite cake recipes to make. It’s so beautifully dense and sweet, and it reminds me of baking with my grandma when I was a little girl.
In the winter there’s almost nothing I love more than warm cinnamon, spicy cloves and smooth cardamom. Whether it’s in a chai tea latte or a cake like this Chai Spice Pound Cake, spices are always a good idea!
