This indulgent Bundt cake is infused with the warmth of rum and the richness of brown sugar, making it a perfect treat for special occasions or cozy nights in. With its moist texture and subtle spices, this cake is sure to impress.
The Perfect Blend of Flavors
To create this masterpiece, you’ll need a combination of brown sugar, walnuts, cinnamon, and cake flour. The addition of sour cream adds a tangy twist, while the rum glaze provides a luxurious finish.
A Simple Yet Impressive Recipe
Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F and preparing a 12-cup Bundt pan. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, walnuts, and cinnamon. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
The Magic Happens
In a stand mixer, cream together butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla extract. Gradually mix in the flour mixture, sour cream, and brown sugar mixture. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 60-65 minutes.
The Finishing Touches
Once the cake has cooled, prepare the rum glaze by combining powdered sugar, light rum, butter, water, and vanilla extract in a medium saucepan. Simmer until slightly syrupy, then let cool to room temperature. Drizzle the glaze over the cake and let it set before serving.
A Perfect Pairing
For a truly decadent experience, pair this cake with a glass of 1999 Hetszolo Tokaji Aszu 3 Puttonyos from Hungary. The notes of dried caramel, orange peel, and honey will perfectly complement the nutty and spice-box nuances of this dessert.
