CARIBBEAN RUM CAKE RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F. Spritz a 10 to 12 cup bundt pan with cooking spray. Sprinkle on the pecan flour and turn the pan to coat evenly. Set aside. Place all of the cake ingredients except the rum, vanilla and butter rum flavoring in the bowl of your stand mixer and blend on medium speed for 2 minutes. Be sure to scrape down the bowl after one minute. Add the rum, vanilla and flavor if using to the batter and blend for another minute. Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and spread level with a spatula. Bake the cake for 50 to 55 minutes. You may smell the nut flour toasting at first, especially those not covered in cake batter. When done, the cake will test clean on a cake tester. Bundt cakes are difficult to test properly with a short toothpick. Instead try a piece of dry uncooked spaghetti or linguine. Leave the cake in the pan to cool slightly while you make the soaking syrup. In a medium-sized saucepan combine the syrup ingredients, except vanilla. Bring to a rapid boil then reduce to a simmer and cook for about 5 to 8 minutes, until the syrup thickens slightly. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Pour about 1/4 of the syrup over the cake (still in the pan). Allow the syrup to soak in, then repeat again and again until all the syrup is used. Cover the pan loosely with plastic wrap and allow the cake to sit out overnight to cool completely and soak in the syrup. When ready to serve, loosen the edges of the cake and invert on to your serving plate. Serve with hot coffee or tea. The cake is very moist, fragrant and potent. Yield: one large or two small bundt cakes. Cake freezes very well. NOTE: For a different taste, use coconut rum.

MARTHARAYDEEN'S CARIBBEAN RUM CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Spray a large bundt pan with Pam. Then evenly sprinkle the chopped walnuts into bottom of pan.
• Combine the first 6 ingredients and mix until it has a gravel/sand consistency (I used a food processor to combine it).
• Add pudding mix, milk, eggs, rum, oil, and vanilla and combine on medium speed with electric mixer for 2 to 3 minutes, scraping the bowl halfway through. Pour mixture over nuts in bundt pan.
• Bake at 325 degrees for 55 minutes, or until golden and toothpick comes out clean. Remove cake from the oven and place it on a cooling rack (do not remove from bundt pan).
• Prepare the glaze by combining butter, water, and sugar in a pan and bring to boil. Stir constantly. Continue to boil for 3-5 minutes until the sugar is completely dissolved and the liquid begins to thicken up. Remove glaze from heat and stir in the rum, continuing to stir. It will bubble up and be a little thinner than you think it should be, but this is ok, it will be great when you finish!
• Pour the warm glaze, a little bit at a time, over the cooling cake inside the bundt pan. I poke a few holes in mine, to let the rum glaze soak through the cake. It will take a little time to get all of the syrup glaze poured over, but believe me, it's worth the time. When you've got all of the syrup glaze poured over the cake, let it cool to room temperature, then cover with foil or plastic wrap and place in the fridge overnight (keeping it in the bundt pan).
• The next day, submerge the bundt pan bottom into a little warm water to warm the glaze (and unstick from the pan), then invert onto a cake platter.
