Toffee Rum Cake Recipes

BERMUDA RUM CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 F degrees. Spray a 10 inch bundt cake pan with cooking spray and set aside.
• Add all the cake ingredients to the bowl of your mixer, in no particular order, and mix on medium for 2 minutes until the batter is smooth. Pour the batter in the prepared bundt pan.
• Bake for 1 hour or until golden brown. You can do the toothpick test to make sure it's baked
• Let it cool slightly for a couple minutes then turn the cake over onto a cake platter or plate.
• Add the sugar and water to a medium size saucepan and place over medium-high heat. Stir or whisk until the sugar has dissolved.
• Turn the heat to high and boil until the syrup turns brown around the edge of the pan then swirl the pan occasionally for a couple more minutes until the syrup turns a deep amber.
• Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the butter until mixed it. Stir in the heavy cream, the sauce will bubble, so stir until the bubbling stops. Add the rum and stir it in.
• Pour the caramel sauce over the cake, you can also poke some holes into it so that caramel sauce seeps into the cake.
• Top with toasted coconut if preferred or pecans.

STICKY TOFFEE BANANA CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter and flour an 8x8-inch baking dish.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer, mix the melted butter and sugar until blended. Add the eggs, mashed bananas, lemon juice and vanilla extract and mix well.
• On low speed, stir in the flour mixture until just incorporated. Do not over mix. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until golden, and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, about 35 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the sauce. Bring the heavy cream, brown sugar, corn syrup, butter, and salt to a boil in a heavy small saucepan over high heat, whisking until the sugar dissolves. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook at a gentle boil, whisking occasionally, until the sauce is slightly thickened, about 15 minutes. It should be the consistency of maple syrup -- it will continue to thicken as it cools. Remove the sauce from the heat and cool.
• Spoon ⅓ cup of the toffee sauce over top of the baked banana cake. Return the cake to the oven and bake until the sauce is bubbling vigorously, about 6 minutes. Cool the cake in the pan on a rack for at least 30 minutes. Cut the cake into 9 squares or 12 rectangles. Serve the cake slightly warm or at room temperature with warm toffee sauce and top with sliced bananas and pecans, if desired.
• Note: Sauce can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and chill; then rewarm slightly before using. If it seems too thick, add more heavy cream to thin it to desired consistency.
• Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The cake can be frozen (without the toffee sauce) for up to 3 months. Bake the cake for 35 minutes, let it cool completely, double-wrap it securely with aluminum foil or plastic freezer wrap. Thaw on the countertop the night before you plan to eat it. Before serving, place the cake back in the oven with the toffee sauce and proceed with the recipe from there.
