Time 1h5m

Yield 1 cake, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

vegetable cooking spray, for misting the pan
1/2 cup finely chopped pecans (optional)
1 (18 1/4 ounce) package of regular yellow cake mix
1/4 cup half of a 3 . 4 ounce package vanilla instant pudding mix
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup Bacardi dark rum (other brands of dark rum will work also)
1/4 cup water
3 large eggs
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
3 tablespoons Bacardi dark rum

Steps:

  • Prepare the cake pan by misting with vegetable oil and placing pecans in bottom of bundt pan if desired. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Place cake mix, pudding mix, sour cream, oil, 1.3 cup of rum, water, eggs, and vanilla in a large mixing bowl and beat with electric mixer on low speed until the ingredients are just incorporated (about 30 seconds). Stop mixing and scrape down the sides of the bowl with rubber spatula.
  • Increase the speed of the machine to medium and beat the batter until smooth (1 1/2 to 2 minutes longer).
  • Pour batter into prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  • Place cake in oven and bake until the top springs back when lightly pressed with finger. Approximately 40 to 45 minutes.
  • While the cake is baking, make the buttered rum glaze. Place butter in small sauce pan over low heat and stir until melted. Add the brown sugar and 3 tbsp of rum and stir to combine. Cook over low heat until the sugar dissolves and the mixture boils and thickens (approx 3 minutes). Remove from heat and let the glaze cool.
  • Transfer the Bundt pan to a wire rack and let cake cook for 10 minutes. The gently shake the pan and invert it on a wire rack to cool. Let cool. Cool for at least 10 minutes.
  • Using wooden skewers ( I use toothpicks), poke a dozen holes in the top of the cake and very slowly pour over warm cake so that the glaze can soak into the cake.
  • Store this cake in a cake saver at room temp for up to 3 days. Freeze unglazed cake for up to 3 months. Let cake thaw overnight on countertop before glazing.

TRADITIONAL ENGLISH CUMBERLAND RUM BUTTER



Traditional English Cumberland Rum Butter image

A lightly spiced butter, laced with dark rum - this traditional old recipe originates from the county of Cumberland in the Lake District of Northern England. In Cumberland, rum butter served with oatcakes or buttermilk scones were given to friends who called at the house to see a new baby. In turn they would leave a silver coin, and on the day of the christening, when the butter bowl was empty, the coins were placed in it. A sticky bowl, with plenty of coins sticking to it, meant that the child would never be wanting. The saying goes...... "Butter symbolizes the richness of life, sugar the sweetness of life and rum, the spirit of life." Cumberland rum butter is traditionally served with Christmas pudding and mince pies; it also makes a wonderful gift for any new parents or to give throughout the festive season.

BROWN-BUTTER PECAN PIE WITH RUM AND ESPRESSO



Brown-Butter Pecan Pie with Rum and Espresso image

Check out our recipe for a twist on pecan pie, with a shot of rum to balance out the sweetness.

Provided by Rhoda Boone

Categories     Dessert     Thanksgiving     Kid-Friendly     Pecan     Kidney Friendly

Yield One 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 18

For the pie crust:
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling
2 1/4 teaspoons granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, cut into pieces and frozen for 15 minutes
1/4 cup solid vegetable shortening, cut into pieces and refrigerated for 15 minutes
For the filling:
3 cups pecans, lightly toasted, divided
6 tablespoons butter
1 cup light brown sugar
1 cup cane syrup (such as Steen's) plus 2 tablespoons, divided
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 tablespoons dark rum
1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
3 large eggs, at room temperature, beaten
Special equipment needed:
9-inch pie pan

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F with one rack on the bottom rung and one rack in the center of oven. Place a rimmed baking sheet on the bottom rack to preheat.
  • Make the pie dough:
  • In the bowl of a food processor, pulse 1 1/4 cups flour, sugar, and salt. Add butter and shortening and pulse until coarse, pea-sized crumbs form, about 10 seconds. With the machine running, add 2 tablespoons ice water and process until the dough just holds together, about 30 seconds. Squeeze a small amount of dough between your fingers: If it is very crumbly, add pulse in more ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time (2 tablespoons maximum). Do not over process.
  • Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and push together into a rough ball. Knead a few times to combine, then flatten into a disc with smooth edges (no cracks), cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight.
  • Roll out the dough into a 13-inch round on a lightly floured surface. Roll the dough loosely around the rolling pin then unfurl it into the 9-inch pie pan. Lightly press it into the pan. Leave 1 inch of dough hanging over the edge, trimming any excess dough. Tuck the dough under itself, and then crimp the edge as desired. Chill at least 30 minutes.
  • Make the filling:
  • Meanwhile, reserve 1 cup whole pecans to decorate top of pie; chop remaining 2 cups.
  • In a small skillet over medium heat, melt butter and cook until foam has subsided and butter is toasty-brown in color and releases a nutty aroma.
  • Pour butter into a large bowl. Whisk in sugar, syrup, salt, vanilla, rum, and espresso powder until all ingredients are well incorporated. Whisk in eggs, then fold in chopped pecans.
  • Pour filling into pie shell (do not overfill). Toss whole pecans with remaining 2 tablespoons cane syrup and arrange on top of pie. Place on preheated rimmed baking sheet on bottom rack of oven. After 20 minutes, rotate baking sheet and move to center rack of oven. Bake until crust is golden brown and filling is almost set with a slight jiggle in center of pie, 20 to 25 minutes more. (Cover the crust edge with foil or a pie shield if it starts to brown too much.) Transfer pie to a wire rack and cool completely before slicing, about 3 hours. Pie will keep up to 2 days, loosely covered with foil, at room temperature.
  • DO AHEAD: The pie dough can be made up to 3 days in advance and chilled, or frozen for up to 3 months; thaw before using. The filling can be made up to 1 day ahead; bring to room temperature before baking.

Yield Makes 4 to 6 (dessert) servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

For sauce:
1 cup sugar
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1/3 cup water
1/4 cup dark rum
1/2 teaspoon cider vinegar
1/4 cup heavy cream
For beignets:
About 8 cups vegetable oil, divided

1 large egg
3/4 cup sparkling apple cider
Confectioners sugar for dusting
Equipment:
a deep-fat thermometer; a 1-inch round cookie cutter or a melon-ball cutter

Steps:

  • Make sauce:
  • Heat sugar in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium heat, stirring with a fork to heat sugar evenly, until it starts to melt, then stop stirring and cook, swirling skillet occasionally so sugar melts evenly, until it is dark amber. Stir in butter, water, rum, vinegar, and a pinch of salt (caramel will harden and steam vigorously) and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until caramel has dissolved. Add cream and bring to a boil, stirring, then remove from heat. Cool to warm.
  • Make beignets:
  • Preheat oven to 250°F with rack in middle. Set a cooling rack in a large shallow baking pan.
  • Heat 2 inches oil in a 5- to 6-quart heavy pot over medium-high heat to 375°F.
  • Meanwhile, peel apples and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Cut out core with cutter, then pat apple rings dry.
  • Put 1 1/4 cups flour in a large shallow bowl and make a well in center. Beat egg in a small bowl with a fork, then stir in cider and 1 tablespoon oil and pour into well. Stir with fork until a lumpy batter forms.
  • Working in batches of 3 or 4, dredge apple rings in remaining 1/2 cup flour, shaking off excess, then dip in batter to coat, letting excess drip off, and fry, gently turning over once with a slotted spoon, until golden brown on both sides, about 2 minutes total per batch. Transfer to rack and keep warm in oven. Return oil to 375°F between batches.
  • Just before serving, dust warm beignets with confectioners sugar. Stir sauce, then serve on the side.

ISLAND SHRIMP AND PINEAPPLE SKEWERS WITH RUM BUTTER SAUCE



Island Shrimp and Pineapple Skewers with Rum Butter Sauce image

Provided by Emeril Lagasse

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger root, plus 2 teaspoons
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
16 medium shrimp, shelled and deveined
1/3 pound sliced prosciutto
1 small pineapple, peeled, cored, and cut into 1-inch cubes
2 tablespoons minced shallots
1/2 cup dark rum
6 ounces (1 1/2 sticks or 12 tablespoons) cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon cayenne
1/2 cup minced fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill to medium heat.
  • In a bowl, combine the lime juice, oil, 2 teaspoons of the ginger, garlic, and pepper flakes. Add the shrimp and pineapple chunks, toss to combine, and let marinate while the grill heats, about 15 minutes. Remove from the marinade.
  • Wrap the shrimp with the prosciutto. Alternately, thread the pineapple chunks and the wrapped shrimp onto metal or bamboo skewers. Grill until the shrimp are cooked through and the pineapple chunks are marked, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove from the grill. (Alternately, the skewers can be cooked under the broiler, turning as necessary to cook evenly and avoid burning.)
  • Make the sauce in a medium saucepan by combining the rum, shallots, and remaining 2 teaspoons of minced ginger. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until reduced to 3 tablespoons in volume, 3 to 4 minutes. With the heat on medium-low, whisk in the butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, adding each piece before the previous one has been completely incorporated. Continue until all the butter is incorporated and the sauce coats the back of a spoon, removing the pan from the heat periodically to prevent the sauce from getting too hot and breaking. Season with the salt and cayenne, and stir. Remove from the heat and transfer to a decorative bowl.
  • To serve, transfer the wrapped shrimp and pineapple chunks from the skewers to a platter. Sprinkle with the cilantro and serve with the rum butter sauce.

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups brown sugar (firmly packed)
1 tablespoon fresh orange zest (finely grated)
