The Ultimate Sour Cream Cranberry-Streusel Bundt Cake image

I can't say enough about this cake, it is moist, dense and buttery!... I have made this using mini chocolate chips and just recently made it with dried cranberries, I plan on making this for the holidays to serve to guests! I baked mine in a tube pan. Since I am making this cake again for the holidays, I plan on adding in some red food colouring in the glaze, and I will chop up frozen or fresh cranberries and add them into the cake batter, but that is only optional.

5 teaspoons cinnamon
6 teaspoons sifted cocoa powder
1/2 cup dried cranberries
3 cups cake flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 cups sugar
3 large eggs
1 1/2 tablespoons vanilla
1 (16 ounce) container sour cream
2 cups powdered sugar
3 -4 tablespoons whipping cream
red food coloring (optional)

Steps:

  • Set oven to 350°.
  • Generously butter a 12-cup Bundt pan (can use a tube pan also).
  • In a bowl mix together all streusel ingredients; set aside.
  • For the cake: sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
  • In a large bowl using an electric mixer cream the butter and sugar with vanilla for 5-6 minutes.
  • Beat in eggs one at a time until well blended.
  • Add in sour cream until well blended.
  • Mix in the flour mixture alternately into butter mixture in 3 additions; then beat on high speed for 1 minute.
  • Pour 1/3 of the batter into prepared baking pan.
  • Sprinkle with half of the streusel mixture.
  • Spoon another 1/3 batter over the streusel mixture.
  • Sprinkle with remaining streusel mixture, and then spoon the remaining batter over.
  • Bake cake for about 1 hour or until cake tests done (it might take more or less time to bake).
  • Cool for about 15 minutes, then carefully run a knife around the sides of the pan to loosen cake.
  • Turn the cake out onto a rack to cool completely.
  • In a bowl whisk together the confectioners sugar and 2 tablespoons whipping cream adding/whisking in more whipping cream to create a THICK glaze (make sure it is thick enough to cling to the cake).
  • Drizzle over the cake.

This cake was a disappointment. It was dry and crumbly, and the flavor was bland.

This cake was a little too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I'll try it again with less sugar next time.
