Beurre Noisette and Vanilla Bean cake

I love simple cake, the one that you can bake it with no time, esp. delicious one ^^.
Pound cake is in this category too, it's easy and delicious plus you can turn it into endless different flavours. Change the sugar, add the extract or fruits, there are many ways you can do. This time, we turn simple pound cake into special one, by turning butter into Beurre Noisette. Beurre Noisette is made by melt the butter and heat until milk segment in the butter become brown, the smell of Beurre Noisette will be nutty (be careful when making Beurre Noisette, remove the saucepan from the heat before it become burn). 
You can serve it the day it made or let it cool and warp with plastic to let it mature for 1 night the texture of the cake will become moist and more delicious.
