HOMEMADE RUM CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C).
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a large mixing bowl using a handheld mixer, cream the butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy (about 4-5 minutes). Beat in eggs one at a time, then beat in the egg yolk and pure vanilla extract, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
• In a separate mixing bowl whisk together the cake flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
• In a large measuring cup whisk together the buttermilk and rum. Set aside.
• Alternate mixing the dry ingredients with the buttermilk rum mixture into the wet ingredients in three additions, starting and ending with the dry ingredients.
• Generously spray a 10-inch (12-cup) bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray, making sure to fully coat the entire pan. Sprinkle the chopped nuts into the pan and spread them around in an even layer. Scoop the batter into the prepared bundt pan over the chopped nuts and spread it around into one even layer.
• Bake at 350°F (177°C) for 40-55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean. Cover loosely with foil for the last 5-10 minutes of baking time if needed to prevent excess browning.
• Remove the cake from the oven and place it on a wire rack to cool slightly in the pan while you prepare the glaze.
• Slice the butter into pieces and place it in a large saucepan over medium heat. Once the butter has melted, add the sugar, rum, and water to the saucepan and stir until well combined.
• Bring to a rapid boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Once the mixture begins to rapidly boil, reduce the heat to medium-low heat and simmer for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat, then stir in the vanilla extract.
• Use a skewer to poke holes in the cake, spoon about 1/3 of the glaze over the cake in the pan. Allow it to sit for about 10 minutes.
• Place some foil or parchment paper under the wire rack, then carefully invert the cake onto the wire rack and remove it from the pan. Use a skewer to poke holes on the top of the cake and then carefully spoon the rest of the glaze on top of the cake and around the sides.
• Allow the cake to cool completely, then serve, and enjoy!

RUM CAKE

Steps:

• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt pan.
• Sift the cake mix into a large bowl. Whisk together the pudding, eggs, oil, 1/2 cup water and 1/2 cup of the dark rum in a separate large bowl. Add the wet ingredients to the cake mix and mix until just blended, then pour half into the prepared Bundt pan. Add the cocoa and the remaining 1 tablespoon dark rum to the remaining half of the batter, then stir to blend and pour into the prepared Bundt pan.
• Bake in the oven until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean, about 1 hour. Let sit for 10 minutes in the pan, then turn out onto a serving plate.
• While the cake is sitting in the pan, make the glaze: Combine the sugar, butter, 1 tablespoon water and vanilla in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened with large bubbles, about 3 minutes. Remove the mixture from the heat and stir in the dark rum. Drizzle the glaze over the top and sides of the cake while both are warm. Allow the cake to absorb the glaze and repeat until all the glaze is used.

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.
