Rosemary Pound Cakes with Port-Soaked Dried Fruits

Fresh rosemary, with its woodsy character and resinous hints, gives these miniature pound cakes a decidedly savory edge. A hearty compote of spice-infused port and chunky dried fruits is full of concentrated flavors that perfectly match the bold taste of the cakes.
