BROWN SUGAR CINNAMON POUND CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350F and prepare your Bundt-type pan with pan spray and flour. (Or use a combination of loaf pans, cake pans, etc, if you don't have a 12 cup Bundt pan).
• Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda. Set aside.
• Cream butter until smooth. Add salt, vanilla, and cinnamon. Since fat carries flavor, this seems like an excellent time to add the flavoring agents.
• Add sugars, making sure that your brown sugar is sifted.
• Cream on medium-high speed until very light and fluffy, making sure to scrape the sides of the mixing bowl as necessary.
• Drizzle the eggs in a bit at a time, beating on medium speed.
• These next additions all get mixed in on low speed for 10 seconds each: half the dry ingredients, half the buttermilk, half the remaining dry ingredients, the rest of the buttermilk, the rest of the dry ingredients
• Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl and then mix on high speed for about 3 seconds. Seriously--no more than that.
• Pour in your very softly whipped cream and fold it in by hand.
• If using a 12 cup Bundt, pour into your prepared pan and bake in the center of the oven for an hour. Test for doneness and bake another five-ten minutes if necessary. Timing for cake layers will be less, as will cupcakes. If you bake in a loaf pan/s, that will take about an hour as well. Just check for doneness by gently pressing the tops of the cakes. They're done when they spring back. They will be a very deep golden brown, may have some cracks in the top, will be just beginning to pull away from the sides of the pan, and will read about 200F on an instant read thermometer.
• Let cool on a rack in the pan for twenty minutes. Turn the cake out on a rack and let it cool completely.
• Glaze and decorate as desired, or leave plain.

CINNAMON STREUSEL BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F For the Streusel Topping, mix flour, brown sugar and cinnamon in medium bowl. Cut in cold butter with pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in pecans. Set aside.
• For the Cake, beat softened butter, granulated sugar and sour cream in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in vanilla. Gradually beat in flour and baking soda on low speed until well mixed.

• Bake 1 hour or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan 10 minutes. Remove from pan. Cool completely on wire rack. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar or drizzle with Vanilla Glaze, if desired.
• Vanilla Glaze: Mix 1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar, 2 tablespoons water and 1/2 teaspoon McCormick® Pure Vanilla Extract in medium bowl until smooth. If necessary, stir in 1 to 3 additional teaspoons water until glaze is of desired consistency. Drizzle over cooled cake. Let stand until glaze is set.
