COFFEE CAKE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan. Line and butter two 18cm sandwich tins. Add the sugar and butter to a bowl and whisk until very fluffy and pale.
• Whisk the eggs in a mug with a fork, then add them gradually to the mixture with 1 tbsp of flour each time. (Make sure you don't use all the flour.) When the eggs have been fully combined into the mix, add the rest of the flour and fold it in gently.
• Add the dissolved coffee to the mixture, still folding. Divide into the sandwich tins and cook for 25-30 min until risen and firm and a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean. Leave to cool in the tin for 5 mins then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely. Can be frozen at this stage.
• Meanwhile, make the icing by beating the icing sugar with the butter until light and fluffy, then add the dissolved coffee. Whisk, then cover and set aside until ready to ice the cake.
• Spread half the icing on the bottom of one sponge and spread the strawberry jam on the bottom of the other, if using. Sandwich together, then spread the remaining icing on top. Decorate with walnuts or cherries, if you like.

Reduce the speed to low and add the flour mixture in 3 batches, alternating with the sour cream, beginning and ending with the flour, beating until just incorporated.
• Spoon the cake batter (it will be very thick) into the prepared pan and smooth with an offset spatula. Sprinkle on the crumb topping.
• Bake until the cake and topping are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 1 hour. Let cool in the pan 20 minutes, then invert onto a plate; invert back onto a rack to cool completely.
• When the cake is cool, whisk the confectioners' sugar and rum together in a medium bowl until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the cake and let set.

KEY LIME RUM CAKE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F (170°C). Grease a 10-12-cup bundt pan with nonstick spray. Dust the inside of the pan with flour and turn the pan to coat evenly, then shake out any excess.
• Make the rum cake: In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, pudding mix, baking powder, salt, butter, and canola oil with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until mixture is well incorporated and looks sandy.
• With the mixer running on low speed, add the milk and eggs and beat until the batter is smooth. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula as needed.
• Add the rum, vanilla, lime juice, and lime zest and stir with a rubber spatula to incorporate.
• Pour the batter into prepared bundt pan, then smooth the top with a spatula.
• Bake the cake for 45-55 minutes, until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool slightly in the pan.
• Make the rum soak: In a medium saucepan, combine the butter, sugar, water, salt, and rum. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5-10 minutes, until the syrup thickens slightly. Transfer the syrup to a medium bowl and stir in the vanilla and lime juice.
• Use a long skewer to poke holes all over the cake. Pour about ¼ cup (60 ML) of the syrup over the cake . Allow the syrup to soak in (this may take 1-2 minutes), then continue pouring over the remaining syrup, ¼ cup at a time.
• Cover the pan loosely with plastic wrap and let the cake sit overnight at room temperature.
• When ready to serve, loosen the edges of the cake with a butter knife and invert onto a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet. If the cake doesn't release easily, place it in a 350°F oven for about 10 minutes to soften the syrup.
• Make the key lime glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, lime juice, and lime zest until combined.
• Pour the glaze over the top of the cake.
• Transfer the cake to a platter, then slice and serve. Leftover cake can be wrapped in plastic wrap and stored at room temperature for 3-4 days.
• Enjoy!

EASY RUM CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
• To prepare the pan, grease and flour a 10" bundt cake pan. Sprinkle the chopped walnuts in the prepared pan.
• Combine the cake mix, pudding mix, rum, water and oil. Beat well.
• Add eggs one at a time, beating between each addition.
• Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan.
• Bake for 60 minutes.
• While the cake is baking, prepare the glaze. In a saucepan over medium low heat, mix together the sugar, water and butter. Bring this to a low boil and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in the rum. (If you'd like to cook the rum, you can! That will remove a very slight amount of the alcohol.)
• Prick the top of the cake with a fork and while the cake is still in the pan, pour the glaze over the cake. Give it at least 30 minutes to sink into the cake.
• Turn the cake out onto a plate to cool completely.
• This cake is best when it has time to sit. Store it in an airtight container and serve it the next day.

RUM CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F with oven rack in the center of oven.
• Whisk the milk, sour cream and rum together in a liquid measure and let come to room temperature.
• In a large bowl or stand mixer whip the butter on medium speed for 1 minute. Add the granulated sugar and beat for 4-5 minutes more. Mix in the vanilla.
• Add the eggs and egg yolks, one at a time, mixing just until combined in between additions. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
• Combine the cake flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
• Add 1/3 of the dry ingredients to the batter and mix just until combined. Add 1/2 of the milk/sour cream mixture and mix.
• Add another 1/3 of the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined. Add the last 1/2 of the milk/sour cream mixture and beat until just combined.
• Add the final 1/3 of the dry ingredients and mix just until combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl.
• Grease and flour bundt pan. I use shortening, and make sure every crevice of the pan is coated! Pour batter evenly into the pan and bake at 350 degrees F for about 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, or with few crumbs.
• Make the glaze: Add sauce ingredients to a saucepan over medium heat. Stir well until butter has melted and mixture is smooth. Bring mixture to a boil, stirring, and boil for 2 minutes.
• Allow the cake to cool for in the pan for at least 15 minutes before gently inverting it. (I like to remove the cake first, to make sure to get it out easily). Then wipe the pan clean and put the cake back in it. Poke holes all over the cake and gently pour most of the sauce over the cake, reserving just a little.
• Allow the cake to soak up the glaze and then invert it onto a plate or serving platter. Spoon remaining glaze on top.
• Store rum cake well-covered in the refrigerator.

RUM CAKE

Steps:

• Sift the cake flour and baking powder: Fold a piece of parchment in half, then open it again. Set a large bowl next to the parchment paper. You will sift the flour and baking powder 3 times transferring it from the bowl to the parchment and back to the bowl. This aerates the flour and helps create a tender crumb. Set a fine mesh sieve over the bowl add the flour and baking powder to the sieve. Lightly tap the sieve against your hand to to sift the flour and let it fall through the sieve. Set the sieve onto the parchment, pour the sifted flour from the bowl into the sieve and sift again. Once you've sifted the flour, put the sieve back over the bowl. Pour the sifted flour from the parchment into the sieve and sift into the bowl. Set this aside while you begin mixing the cake.
• Combine the milk, vanilla extract and 1/2 cup of rum: In a separate 1-quart measuring cup or small mixing bowl, combine the milk, vanilla extract, and 1/2 cup of the cooled rum. Set aside.
• Combine the butter, sugar, honey, and salt: In the bowl of your stand mixer, use the paddle attachment to beat together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, honey, and kosher salt at low speed for 2 minutes. Once the mixture is smooth, stop the mixer and scrape down the bowl and paddle. Continue beating, this time at medium speed until the mixture is almost white in appearance and slightly fluffy, about 3 minutes. Stop the mixer and scrape down the bowl and paddle halfway through this 3-minute mixing time.
• Add the eggs: With the mixer on low speed, add the eggs to the bowl one at a time. Beat in each egg until it is no longer visible before adding the next one. Once all of the eggs have been incorporated, stop the mixer and scrape down the bowl and paddle. Now, beat the mixture for 3 minutes on medium speed or until light and fluffy.

RUM CAKE

Steps:

• Place the raisin and prunes in a medium sized pot, pour in the rum to cover and bring to a boil for 1 minute over medium high heat.Turn stove off, cover pot and remove from heat. Set aside.When the fruit has absorbed most of the liquid and has cooled almost to room temperature, purée it in a blender until it's smooth, fruity, and the rum is fragrant.Preheat the oven to 350°F.Fill a baking pan halfway with water and place it on the bottom shelf in the oven. You need to do this to create steam so that your cake comes out super moist.Butter a 9x3-inch round cake pan with a bit of butter, then line it with parchment paper and butter the parchment too.Dust the parchment paper lightly with flour, tapping out any excess. Set aside.In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and fresh ground nutmeg. Set aside.In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the unsalted butter with the brown sugar on medium-high speed until fluffy and light, about 3 to 5 minutes.Lower the speed and add the eggs, one at a time, until they're fully incorporated. Stop the mixer and scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl.Add the vanilla, molasses, and 1 cup of the blended fruit to the mixture and mix just until they're combined. The extra blended fruit can be placed in the fridge for future use. It will keep for several months.With the mixer on low, slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, in small increments. Finish by incorporating the final bit of flour mixture into the batter with a stiff rubber spatula.Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake until the top is dark brown, 50 minutes to 1 hour, or until a cake tester comes out clean.Remove the cake pan to a cooling rack, wait for 5 minutes, and then flip the cake down onto another cooling rack, carefully remove the pan and the parchment paper. Place the extra 1/4 rum in a spray bottle and spray the entire cake, including sides. Allow the cake to cool completely.Once cooled, flip the cake right side up on the rack and spray the entire cake once again with extra rum.Wrap cake in wax or parchment paper and then tightly in plastic wrap.Notes:The beauty of this cake is that it will keep at room temperature, for up to 3 weeks. Just spray it with rum ever so often to keep it punched with rum flavour.When serving, sprinkle lightly with powdered sugar and garnish with pomegranate seeds and sliced oranges.If you're ever in a pinch to get your eggs to room temperature quickly, simply place your eggs in a bowl and cover with hot tap water for 5 minutes.If you've reached for your brown sugar and have found that it has hardened over time, do not throw out. Simply place a couple slices of any type of bread in the bag or container, seal and leave overnight. Your sugar will return to its normal state.*Grace Browning Caramel, a product of Jamaica, is used to enhance the color of this cake, hence the name Black Cake.Source: From Carleen in Markham
