THE ULTIMATE SOUR CREAM CRANBERRY-STREUSEL BUNDT CAKE
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.

Tips:
- Prep the cranberries: Fresh cranberries can be used, but frozen cranberries are also a good option. If using frozen cranberries, thaw them before using.
- Make the streusel topping: The streusel topping is a combination of flour, sugar, butter, and spices. To make the streusel, combine all of the ingredients in a bowl and use your fingers to work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. If the topping is too dry, add a little more butter. If the topping is too wet, add a little more flour.
- Assemble the kuchen: To assemble the kuchen, start by spreading the cranberry mixture in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Then, top the cranberry mixture with the streusel topping. Bake the kuchen at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 30-35 minutes, or until the streusel topping is golden brown and the cranberry mixture is bubbly.
- Chill before serving: Once the kuchen is baked, let it cool completely before serving. The kuchen can also be chilled in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight before serving. This will help the kuchen to set and make it easier to slice.
Conclusion:
This cranberry sour cream kuchen is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of tart cranberries, sweet streusel topping, and creamy sour cream filling is sure to please everyone. Whether you are serving it for breakfast, brunch, or dessert, this kuchen is sure to be a hit.
