Description

A moist and buttery cake infused with a rich salted caramel glaze. Its tender crumb, combined with the sweet-salty glaze, creates a melt-in-your-mouth experience.


Ingredients

Scale
  • Cake:
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • Salted Caramel Glaze:
  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup heavy cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp sea salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare Cake Batter: Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease and flour a bundt pan. Mix dry ingredients, then beat in butter, eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla until smooth.
  2. Bake: Pour batter into the pan. Bake for 45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack.
  3. Make Glaze: In a saucepan, melt butter, stir in brown sugar, cream, and salt. Simmer for 3 minutes.
  4. Glaze the Cake: Poke holes in the cake with a skewer. Slowly pour half the glaze over the warm cake. Let it absorb, then drizzle the remaining glaze on top before serving.

Notes

  • Ensure butter is softened for best results.
  • Poke holes generously to allow glaze to penetrate the cake.
  • Serve warm or at room temperature.
