EGGNOG POUND CAKE WITH RUM GLAZE



Eggnog Pound Cake with Rum Glaze image

I based this recipe on a similar one from Horizon Dairy, making a few minor changes to fit what I had on hand. We love this cake! I love eggnog, and tend to buy too much during the holiday season, so this is a great use for leftovers. The flavor is rich, and the oil helps the cake stay soft and moist until every last slice is...

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 16

For the Cake:
8 tablespoons (4 ounces) unsalted butter, softened
3 large eggs, slightly beaten
1 cup eggnog
1/4 cup rum
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 (18.25-ounce) package white cake mix
For the Rum Glaze:
1 1/4 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
2 tablespoons rum, or milk and rum flavoring
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 tablespoon milk or eggnog, optional
For Decoration:
Fresh mint leaves, for optional garnish
1/4 cup red berries, for optional garnish

Steps:

  • Gather the cake ingredients.
  • Preheat the oven to 325 F.
  • Generously grease and flour a 12-cup Bundt cake pan.
  • In a large bowl, beat the butter until light, either by hand or with the help of a mixer. Add in the eggs, eggnog, and rum (or 1/4 cup eggnog plus rum flavoring) and beat on low for 3 minutes.
  • Add the vanilla, nutmeg, and cake mix and beat slowly to combine. Set the mixer on high speed and beat well for 2 minutes, until the mixture is fluffy and filled with air.
  • Spoon the batter into the prepared Bundt cake pan.
  • Bake the cake for 35 to 45 minutes, or until a cake tester or a long wooden pick comes out clean when inserted in the middle of the cake. If your oven is hotter in some spots, turn the cake 180 F after 20 minutes in the oven.
  • Cool the cake in the pan on a rack for 15 minutes.
  • Invert the cake onto a serving plate or cake tray and cool completely at room temperature.
  • Gather the glaze ingredients.
  • While the cake cools, combine the confectioners' sugar with the rum and melted butter in a bowl. Mix well using a small whisk.
  • If necessary, add milk or eggnog to thin the glaze. Or, if too thin, add more confectioners' sugar to thicken the mixture.
  • Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake in a decorative pattern. Garnish with mint leaves and red berries, if desired.
  • Enjoy.

RUM POUND CAKE



Rum Pound Cake image

This recipe is from Paula Deen's magazine called Holiday Baking. This cake looked so good I couldn't wait until the holidays to make it. It was amazing! If you want to try a really nice rum for this cake, if it's available in your area (also good in eggnog) try Captain Morgan's Private Stock. It is a rum with added spices, very nice. I made the glaze with this also. I halved that recipe and it was plenty. The serving size of this depends on how big a slice you cut :) Salt is not listed as an ingredient because I use salted butter but if you use unsalted butter or just want this cake saltier add 1/2 tsp salt.

  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help the cake rise evenly.
  • Let the cake cool completely before glazing it. This will help the glaze set properly.
  • Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
