Bundt Cake with Brown Butter Glaze

Bundt Cake with Brown Butter Glaze

This elegant, yet simple, Bundt cake uses the "Sweet Seduction" Dessert Topper to infuse the batter with warm spice, complemented by a nutty, rich brown butter icing.

Ingredients

  • For the Cake:

    • 1 ½ cups (3 sticks) unsalted butter, softened

    • 2 cups granulated sugar

    • 4 large eggs

    • 1 tsp vanilla extract

    • 3 cups all-purpose flour

    • 1 tsp salt

    • 1 tsp baking soda

    • 1 tbsp Paramour Spice Co. "Sweet Seduction" Dessert Topper

    • 1 cup buttermilk or sour cream

  • For the Brown Butter Glaze:

    • ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter

    • 2 cups powdered sugar, sifted

    • ¼ cup milk or heavy cream

    • ½ tsp Paramour Spice Co. "Sweet Seduction" Dessert Topper

 

Instructions

  1. Prep: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-cup Bundt pan generously.

  2. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.

  3. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda, and 1 tbsp of the "Sweet Seduction" Dessert Topper.

  4. Combine: Alternate adding the dry ingredients and the buttermilk/sour cream to the butter mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix just until combined. Do not overmix.

  5. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan. Bake for 50–55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.

  6. Cool: Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.

  7. Make the Brown Butter Glaze: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Continue cooking, swirling occasionally, until the butter turns a rich amber color and nutty brown bits form at the bottom (about 5–7 minutes). Remove immediately from heat.

  8. Finish Glaze: Pour the brown butter into a medium bowl. Whisk in the sifted powdered sugar, milk/cream, and ½ tsp of the "Sweet Seduction" Dessert Topper until smooth.

  9. Glaze and Serve: Drizzle the glaze over the completely cooled Bundt cake.
