JAMAICAN RUM CAKE | DELICIOUS!

Recipe:

Ingredients
To make the rum cake:
1 cup (230 grams) salted butter softened to room temperature
2 cups (400 grams) granulated sugar
4 large eggs room temperature
1 large egg yolk room temperature
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 and ¾ cups (305 grams) flour
2 and ½ teaspoons baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
¾ cup (180 ml) buttermilk
⅓ cup (80 ml) dark rum
1/2 cup (60 grams) chopped candied pecans
To make the rum syrup:
½ cup (115 grams) salted butter
1 cup (200 grams) granulated sugar
½ cup (120 ml) dark rum
¼ cup (60 ml) water
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions

To make the rum cake:
Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C).
• In a large bowl cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then beat in the egg yolk, and vanilla.
• In a separate mixing bowl whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
•In a large measuring cup whisk together the buttermilk and rum. Set aside.
•Alternate mixing the dry ingredients with the buttermilk rum mixture into the wet ingredients, starting and ending with the dry ingredients.
•Generously spray a 10 inch bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray. Next, sprinkle the chopped nuts into the pan and pour the cake batter into the prepared bundt pan over the chopped nuts.
•Bake at 350°F (177°C) for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean. Once the cake is finished, set aside to cool while you make the glaze.

To make the rum glaze:
•Combine all ingredients into a medium saucepan, over medium heat.
Once the mixture begins to rapidly boil, reduce the heat to low heat and simmer for 6-8 minutes, stirring consistently. Remove from heat, once the mixture begins to thicken.
•Pour the glaze over the cake, allowing it to soak in, repeating as necessary.
Allow the cake to cool completely, and enjoy!
