Hot Buttered Rum Pecan Cake Recipes

PECAN BUTTER RUM CAKE RECIPE

Steps:

• Grease and flour a bundt pan and set aside. Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the ingredients (excepting pecans) and beat until smooth, around two minutes.
• Pour into the prepared bundt pan. Stir in the cup of pecans until they are mid-way through the batter. ( I do this to prevent them from being on top. Most recipes have them on the top, but then your buttered rum doesn't soak in properly!!)
• Bake in the oven for 35-45 minutes, until a cake tester or toothpick inserted comes out clean.
• Remove from the oven and cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then invert onto the plate you want to serve it on.
• Poke holes in the top.
• For the Rum Glaze, combine the first three ingredients in a pan. Bring it to a boil, boil for 5 minutes. Add in the rum at the very end and mix in.
• Pour over the still warm cake, spooning up any extra over and over again, until you get most of it soaked into the cake. Yes, this can be a pain but THIS is what makes the cake so darn good!
• Let the cake sit from 12-24 hours before eating.
• When you go to serve, you can mix up the icing ingredients and drizzle over the cake. This is optional! Try it with and without, you can't go wrong either way!

HOT BUTTERED RUM

Steps:

• Using an electric mixer, beat the brown sugar, butter, honey, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt in a medium bowl until blended and smooth. Transfer the mixture to a 4-cup (or larger) measuring cup. Add the rum and then 2 cups of boiling water. Stir until the butter mixture dissolves. Divide the buttered rum among 4 mugs. Garnish with the cinnamon sticks and serve.

BUTTER PECAN RUM CAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325 degrees. Grease and flour, or spray with baking spray with flour, 12 cup fluted tube (bundt cake) pan.
• In large bowl, beat dry cake mix, dry pudding mix, water, sour cream, butter, 1/4 cup rum and eggs on low speed 30 seconds. Beat on medium speed 2 minutes. Spread in pan.
• Bake 46 to 52 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
• Cool 15 minutes; remove from pan. Cool completely, about 2 hours.
• In small microwavable bowl, microwave frosting uncovered on medium (50%) 15 seconds. Stir in 2 teaspoons rum.
• Pour over top of cake, allowing to drizzle down side. Sprinkle pecans on frosting.
• Store loosely covered.

HOT BUTTERED RUM CAKE

Steps:

• For the cake: Position an oven rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 325 degrees F.
• Spray a 12-cup Bundt pan with cooking spray and sprinkle the bottom with the chopped pecans. Set aside.
• Combine the flour, dry milk, cornstarch, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Set aside.
• Cream the butter and sugar together in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment on medium speed until light and fluffy.
• Add the dry ingredients and mix until combined. (It will look like crumb topping.)
• Whisk together the milk, rum, oil, vanilla and eggs in another bowl.
• Slowly add the liquid mixture to the crumb mixture and mix until combined. (Pouring the liquid in slowly is important. The batter has a high ratio of liquid and will be thin almost like a thick crepe batter, but if you add the liquid too quickly you will get lumps that never go away no matter the amount of mixing!)
• Pour the batter into the pan and bake until the top is golden, center is set and a toothpick comes out clean when inserted, 50 to 60 minutes.
• Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a cooling rack. Poke holes all over the cake using a wooden skewer.
• For the buttered rum sauce: Meanwhile, add the butter, honey, cinnamon, cardamom, allspice, nutmeg, salt and 1/3 cup water to a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring, until the honey has dissolved, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the rum. (It is going to bubble and splatter a little, so be careful.)
• Clean and dry the Bundt pan, then place the cooled cake back inside the pan. Poke a few holes in the top. Evenly pour the rum sauce over the cake. Let the cake sit to absorb the sauce, 30 minutes or up to overnight.
• Invert the cake back onto a cake plate and serve at room temperature. (See Cook's Note.)

Steps:

• Cream butter until light and fluffy. Gradually add sugar and beat on medium speed for 5 minutes.

• In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt and whisk until blended.
• Add the dry mixture to the butter, alternating with the cup of buttermilk until well blended.

• Using a 10-inch tube pan or a 12-cup Bundt pan (greased and floured to prevent sticking), pour batter into pan and bake at 325° for one hour.
• Cool for 15 minutes on a wire rack, then transfer to cake plate and cool completely.
• THIS IS THE TRICKY PART---once cake has cooled completely, return it to the baking pan and prick holes at 1-inch intervals with a wooden pick or skewer.
• Pour 2/3 of the sauce mixture over the cake allowing it to soak into the holes.
• After this has set for about 15 minutes, remove the cake from the pan again and place it on your cake plate and pour the remaining butter sauce over the cake.
