CHOCOLATE RUM CAKE FROM SCRATCH

Steps:

• To make the cake: Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Cover a Bundt pan with non-stick baking spray. Whisk together flour and baking soda; set aside. In a large saucepan, over medium heat, add the butter and ginger beer and stir until butter is melted. Remove pan from the heat. Add the unsweetened cocoa and sugar and stir to combine. Pour in the rum and stir to combine. Add the buttermilk, eggs and vanilla and stir to combine, Add the flour mixture and stir until no flour streaks remain. Pour batter into prepared Bundt pan and bake until cake tester inserted in the thickest part of the cake is free of wet batter (a few crumbs will be visible), about 45 to 50 minutes. In the meantime, make the glaze. To make the glaze: In a small saucepan, over medium high heat, combine the butter, sugar, rum and water. Cook and stir until mixture comes to a boil. Lower heat and let simmer for 5 minutes, then remove from heat. Once the cake is done, transfer the Bundt pan to a wire rack to cool for 5 minutes. Invert pan and turn out the cake out onto serving plate. Use a skewer and poke holes all over the cake and brush the cake all over with the glaze. Serve warm. Cover cake with plastic wrap and store at room temperature for up to two days, if any leftovers remain.

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F with oven rack in the center of oven.

• In a large bowl or stand mixer whip the butter on medium speed for 1 minute. Add the granulated sugar and beat for 4-5 minutes more. Mix in the vanilla.
• Add the eggs and egg yolks, one at a time, mixing just until combined in between additions. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
• Combine the cake flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
• Add 1/3 of the dry ingredients to the batter and mix just until combined. Add 1/2 of the milk/sour cream mixture and mix.
• Add another 1/3 of the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined. Add the last 1/2 of the milk/sour cream mixture and beat until just combined.
• Add the final 1/3 of the dry ingredients and mix just until combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl.
• Grease and flour bundt pan. I use shortening, and make sure every crevice of the pan is coated! Pour batter evenly into the pan and bake at 350 degrees F for about 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, or with few crumbs.
• Make the glaze: Add sauce ingredients to a saucepan over medium heat. Stir well until butter has melted and mixture is smooth. Bring mixture to a boil, stirring, and boil for 2 minutes.
• Allow the cake to cool for in the pan for at least 15 minutes before gently inverting it. (I like to remove the cake first, to make sure to get it out easily). Then wipe the pan clean and put the cake back in it. Poke holes all over the cake and gently pour most of the sauce over the cake, reserving just a little.
• Allow the cake to soak up the glaze and then invert it onto a plate or serving platter. Spoon remaining glaze on top.
• Store rum cake well-covered in the refrigerator.
