Instructions

For the cake:

  • Preheat your oven to 325 degrees and coat your bundt pan with 1 tablespoon of butter and sprinkling of flour to coat all sides. You will need at least a 10 cup bundt pan for this recipe.
  • In your mixer bowl, cream together remaining butter, both sugars and salt on high speed until light and fluffy for about 5 minutes.
  • Next add in eggs, one at a time, and mix until well incorporated.
  • Slow mixer to lowest speed and carefully add in flour, baking powder and baking soda then add in sour cream and extract and cream the mixture until just combined.
  • Pour cake batter into bundt pan and bake for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out moist but mostly clean.
  • Cool cake for 10 minutes then invert cake onto cooling rack and cool until room temperature.

For the sour cream glaze:

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment or hand mixer, beat cream cheese and butter on medium speed until mixture is light and fluffy, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Scrape down sides of bowl, and add 3/4 cup powdered sugar and salt. Beat on low speed until mixture is smooth, about 1 minute.
  • Add sour cream and whole milk, beat on low speed 1 minute.
  • Add remaining 3/4 cup powdered sugar, and beat on low speed until sugar is completely incorporated.
  • Scrape sides of bowl, and increase speed to medium-high, whisking until mixture is well combined.
  • Drizzle glaze on cooled cake.
  • Enjoy!
