BABA AU RHUM (RUM CAKE)

Steps:

• Butter a 10 inch Bundt or tube pan.
• Sprinkle yeast over 1/4 cup warm water in a small bowl and let stand 1 minute (or until creamy) then stir until dissolved.
• In a large mixing bowl beat the eggs and zest until blended. Beat in flour, 3 tablespoons sugar and salt. Add yeast and butter and beat until well blended.
• Scrape dough into the buttered pan and cover with plastic wrap. Let stand in a warm place for 1 hour (dough should double in size).
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Bake cake for 30 minutes or until golden (a cake tester [whatever that is] should come out clean when inserted in the center). So like I said, until golden.
• Invert cake on a wire rack and let cool 10 minutes. Set the pan aside.
• For the syrup:
• Combine 2 cups sugar and 2 cups water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Stir in the rum. Remove from heat and set aside 1/4 cup of the syrup.
• Return the cake (should still be hot) to pan and poke holes all over the surface with a skewer. Spoon the hot syrup over the cake.
• Before serving, invert cake onto a serving plate, drizzle with reserved syrup and serve with whipped cream.

BABA AU RHUM (RUM BABA) BY INA GARTEN (BAREFOOT CONTESSA)

Steps:

• Make the rum syrup:.
• Place the sugar, lemon juice and 1 1/2 cups water in a small saucepan and cook over high heat until the sugar dissolves. Pour into a 4-cup heatproof measuring cup and allow to cool. Add the rum and vanilla and set aside.
• Make the whipped cream:.
• Whip the cream in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. When it starts to thicken, add the sugar and vanilla and continue to whip until the cream forms stiff peaks. Don't overheat, or you'll end up with butter!
• Make the baba:.
• Combine the currants, lemon zest and rum in a small bowl and set aside. Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter and brush a 5-cup (6 1/2 X 3 1/2-inch) tube pan or kugelhopf mold with the melted butter. Be sure to coat every crevice of the pan. Heat the milk to 115°F (46°C) and then pour it into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Stir in the yeast and sugar and allow to sit for 5 minutes.
• With the mixer on low speed, first add the eggs, then the flour, salt, and remaining 4 tablespoons of butter. Raise the speed to medium-high and beat for 5 minutes. Scrape down the bowl and beater to form the dough into a ball. It will be very soft. Cover the bowl with a damp towel and allow it to rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• Drain the currants and zest (empty the rum remaining into the prepared syrup), fold them into the dough with a spatula, and spoon into the prepared pan. Smooth the top, cover the pan with a damp towel, and allow to rise until the dough reaches the top of the pan, 50 minutes to 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and make the rum syrup. Bake the cake for about 50 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool for 10 minutes, then tap it out of the cake pan onto a baking rack set over a sheet pan.
• Pour all of the rum syrup very slowly onto the warm cake, allowing it all to soak in thoroughly. Amazingly, the liquid will be absorbed into the cake, so be sure to use all of the syrup.
• Heat the preserves with 1 tablespoon of water until runny, press it through a sieve, and brush it on the cake. Serve with whipped cream piped into the middle of the cake plus an extra bowl on the side.

PUMPKIN RUM CAKE

Steps:

• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a 10-cup bundt pan, shaking out the excess flour.
• Stir together the flour, sugar and salt in a large bowl; set aside. Whisk together the buttermilk, baking soda, vanilla and maple extracts and eggs in a separate bowl. Set aside.
• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in the pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice until well combined. Next, add the boiling water and whisk until the mixture is smooth.
• Pour the pumpkin mixture into the dry ingredients and whisk together until the flour is just mixed in. Slowly add the wet ingredients and stir until just combined. Pour the cake batter into the prepared bundt pan. Bake until a cake tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 45 minutes.
• For the rum syrup: Meanwhile, in a large saucepan over medium heat, combine the butter, sugar and 2 tablespoons water and bring to a boil; cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Turn off the heat. Slowly and carefully, pour in the rum while stirring. Then stir in the vanilla. Set aside.
• Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 to 12 minutes. Carefully, invert the cake onto a rack over a baking sheet. Poke the top and sides of the cake all over with a wooden skewer.
• Pour half of the syrup into the base of the bundt pan. Gently return the cake to the pan. Using the same skewer, poke the bottom of the cake. Pour the remaining syrup over the cake and around the edges of the pan. Allow the cake to cool completely and soak up the syrup in the bundt pan, about 1 hour.
• Once cooled, invert onto a serving platter. Slice and serve each piece with a dollop of Maple Whipped Cream and a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice.
• Add the cream and maple syrup to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Whip on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes. Refrigerate until ready to use.
