Yield Makes 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

Cake:
2 cups (4 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for pan
3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for pan
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1/2 teaspoons ground cardamom
2 cups superfine sugar
6 large eggs
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Apricots and assembly:
2/3 cup Grand Marnier
2/3 cup granulated sugar
2 cups dried apricots (about 8 ounces)
1 1 1/2" piece peeled ginger, sliced
Lightly sweetened whipped cream (for serving)
Special Equipment
A 10"-diameter tube pan or angel food cake pan

Steps:

  • For cake:
  • Place a rack in middle of oven; preheat to 325°F. Butter and flour pan. Whisk salt, cream of tartar, cardamom, and 3 cups flour in a medium bowl.
  • Using an electric mixer on high speed, beat 2 cups butter until very light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Reduce speed to low and gradually add superfine sugar. Increase speed to high and beat until very light and creamy, 6-8 minutes longer. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating to blend between additions. Beat in cream and vanilla. Reduce speed to low; gradually add dry ingredients, mixing until mostly combined. Finish mixing with a rubber spatula just until combined. Scrape batter into prepared pan.
  • Bake cake, rotating halfway through, until top is golden brown and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 70-80 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack; let cake cool completely before turning out.
  • DO AHEAD: Cake can be baked 3 days ahead. Store tightly wrapped at room temperature.
  • For apricots and assembly:
  • Bring Grand Marnier, granulated sugar, and 2/3 cup water to a boil in a small saucepan, stirring to dissolve sugar. Add apricots and ginger, reduce heat to low, and simmer gently until apricots are very soft, 20-25 minutes. Let cool.
  • Remove ginger just before serving. Serve cake with apricots and syrup and whipped cream.
  • DO AHEAD: Apricots can be poached 1 week ahead. Cover and chill.
